Completely agree with this review on all points. Mint is really nothing more than a few add on modules for Ubuntu. I dont think its even proper to call Mint a Distro because it pretty much IS Ubuntu. You can then follow that line by saying, "well, Ubuntu then IS Debian," and that is true to a small degree. Ubuntu grabs snapshots of Debian Unstable every 6 months, but then modifies the code significantly enough to the point that some debian packages wont work on Ubuntu and vica versa. Install is much difference between Debian and Ubuntu. So on and so forth. The same cannot be said of Mint, which again IS Ubuntu with a different name.
