No?

They base on our packages, we have the same structure. Thus I am defending this.

Nonsense. Again, install the correct package.
You also have to install the correct packages when you install
the "standard OOo/LO packages". If you leave one of those out, you also
loose something. Would cou call that crippled? No.

Which missing pieces? What did you install in the first place?
Any clueless user should use "libreoffice" as the start point, when
Ubuntus install does something else, ok, but then again, people
can install stuff afterwards.
(That said, if you install Debian and choose desktop you get "libreoffice"
installed, no idea what Ubuntu does)
Would you also argue it's a crippling of someone installed a
"standard OOo/LO package" but left -xsltfilter out? Which he could?
And wonders why those don't work? No. Same story here.
But we are going in cirlces, I grok that you don't care about proper
packaging and making optional stuff choosable. Thankfully distros
are not following every stupidity and make life of their users easier
by allowing them to get rid of stuff THEY don't want/need.
