Chris, you understood the bug report the opposite way. Indeed making
Ubuntu the best it can be does not require a majority market share: the
bug report suggest that a majority market share for Ubuntu requires it
to be the best it can be.
IMHO, this alone won't fix the bug because if you buy a laptop to
install Ubuntu, it is likely to be pre-installed with Windows, so
Windows market share is unchanged. The only bugfix I can see is being
able to refuse Windows EULA and get refund for unused Windows licences
such as:
French Judge Orders Refund For Pre-Installed XP

Money more than free excellence will make people shift to Linux. When
people will they save 130€ (~ 200$) to use Ubuntu, it will make a bigger
difference than a bunch of nice features and bugfixes.
