You took the words out of my mouth
:-)

Jokes apart, I think it's evident that there are two approaches to  
deal with a distro/application.
I'm just defending my position, without implying that the other one  
is inferior/negative/etc.

I just want to point out that to have a context distro wrapped into a  
mac app (i.e. autonomous, self-contained)
will make the life easier for many users.  (So, thanks Oliver)
This does not prevent them to have an experimental, on-the-edge version.
