That I can live with.

There is a 2nd potential point of confusion to it.

"better product", simply means: Compared to others it scores better on 
more use cases.

It does no mean (at least not to me), that it is better for *all* (or 
very high percentage [1])  use cases.

I did myself mix that up in my previous reply.

This in not to say, it could not be a high percentage, it just says that 
the phrase does not necessarily mean this.

For example (assuming you use a provider, and do not have to set up the 
server). The learning curve for an absolute newly is higher for GIT than 
far SVN.

Different people learn in different ways. There will be a fair share of 
people for whom taking their first steps into using a repository is 
better done with a simpler system. (Just for the learning, but it still 
is a valid use case)
