It depends on what the user wants the kernel for. If the user wants to
do device driver/kernel development, the developers insist to use
stock kernels from kernel.org, not the distro kernels. The distro
kernels are heavily patched by the distro kernel maintainers.

Patches/enhancements to the kernel are done against stock kernels, and
may not apply cleanly to distro kernels.
