the main reason is that they are lazy and cannot bother to work their
way against the trend. you said it after all: they just curate
collections of other people's software and often get more credit and
donations for that, as some curators do in place of artists...

and you missed to mention Tails by the way. They are overly advertised
as the secure privacy distro to use, yet they have moved into systemd
without posing even a question about it.
