It's like you see a delicious dish of food with a dead fly on the CENTER of it. A lot of work can be done on other bugs, but all those work will not have any positive effect if people feel bad. :-) People will not know that ubuntu team has fixed so many bugs that prevented so many problems (say those crashes happen to 1% of people) but everyone will notice (sort of) the ugliness by placing a cursor in the middle of the screen breaking all the supposed aesthetic value xsplash is to give.
