In other words, Ubuntu got a feature in 2007, presumably due to its ability to globally patch packages and hire experts.

I choose to not participate in activities that enable Ubuntu's feature lifecycle. All the Debian developers you've mentioned have the ability to put dh_apparmor in Debian if they choose. -- see shy jo
