You don't have to create new OSes indeed.
In fact I'm gratefull Ubuntu stepped in years ago to try and standardise things a little.
I may not like the original distribution itself but it's undeniable that the community is better for it.
Still, they are quite a few "distros" (image quotes with finger gesture here ; ) which are just skins and/or repacks.
I myselft was a little scared by the Linux community at first just looking at the tons available on distrowatch, etc.
Ubuntu itselft has I don't know how many spinoffs (Lubuntu, Xubuntu, Burgerbuntu, Whatitsnamebuntu, etc.)
It took me a few dozen distro hop to settle down with LiLi and XFCE, NOT something a common user would do.
My personal minimum, XFCE + Whiskers + Lightweight
