Theft of the name would be fine, IF we were using it to describe a
nearly identical package/policy space. But clearly, whatever our pile
of packages is, it will have a distinctly different policy and
therefore should not re-use the name Ubuntu has already built a
working understanding around.  If we try to re-define the name to mean
what we want it to mean, then we'll be setting up exactly the wrong
initial condition and creating unnecessary confusion for everyone.
