(If you are looking only at their weakness)
One of the strengths of the Linux ecosystem is that there are a wide verity of distros, many with a diffrent design philosophy. If someone looks at QubesOS and says it suck because it is way to heavy, they would be correct because it uses a lot of computer resources, but the point is to maximize security, so the trade off is storage space and RAM usage. Any light distro has to sacrifice some security in order to be so lightOther OS's are generic, so they won't be able to specify as well as distros do. GNU/Linux is able to run of a thumb drive, but at the cost of things such as intuitiveness and Graphical polish. Debian is stable at the cost of new gizmos, but many people don't need the latest tech.
As someone new to GNU/Linux I think this is amazing each distribution serves a purpose, there are even so general distros for people who don't know what the value in an OS.
