This isn't trolling. This is pointing out that despite all the discussion of "popular" distros (Ubuntu, Fedora, OpenSUSE) that have switched to pulse as default, there is still a plethora of other distros that haven't (and likely will not). Debian and Gentoo are probably the most popular distros in this category.

It is an objection to the idea of dropping winealsa for winepulse. Any solution to the problem of Wine and pulse must not detract from current functionality.
