Problems in new LTS flavors of Ubuntu

I have seen some reviews reporting problems in the new LTS flavors of Ubuntu.
Every new release comes with small hick-ups, bugs, and flaws. That always happened and will always happen in the future. All of these "issues" will be solved from now on with updates and fixes. Every LTS version of Ubuntu, and its derivatives, will have point releases, i.e. 16.04 => 16.04.1 => 16.04.2, etc. These releases will fix "what went wrong in the previous release", or in other words, it is just a new release of Ubuntu 16.04 including all bugfixes released up till the release date of that point release.

Ofcourse it will effect LL. All bugs and flaws in Ubuntu 16.04 will be in LL 3.0. If the dev's of LL follow the release path of Ubuntu, LL will also be updated periodically getting the latest updates and fixes. So yes, it will effect LL 3.0 badly but furthermore positively by receiving the same updates and (bug)fixes as Ubuntu.

Yes I agree however with Ubuntu the LTS is suppose to avoid these issues due to everything being tested and solid before being released. Whats the difference between other releases.

Most people who choose LTS expect things to work 99% and in this case Ubuntu has dropped the ball as It maybe because their taking on too much to look after the details. Also I have heard from others that Ubuntu was the goto distro for new users. However now it seems not to be the csase now.

Also developers are finding that adding software to the Ubuntu repos a bit more of a hassle than other distros. Seems to be a bit of a 180 on Ubuntu part.
I'v been bashing Windows way before Microsoft.....
