This is where you confuse Ubuntu and Debian. Debian trys to do the "right thing" as I think you mean. Ubuntu tries to be user friendly.
Debian makes Epiphany the default.
Would you want OpenOffice removed by the same token and AbiWord/Gnumeric the default in Ubuntu?
I'm not confused; I just think that since Ubuntu is a (maybe THE) flagship GNOME distro, they should be consistent and use Epiphany. What reason do they have to use Firefox instead? It has a nasty XUL interface which is inconsistent with the rest of the desktop, and it doesn't integrate properly with GNOME. And yes, I think that Abiword and Gnumeric should be used by default too. Maybe that way they'd get some attention and become decent applications!
