True, but it does provide vast majority of software regular user needs, and then some. If you're gonna need something that isn't apt-gettable the odds are that you're savvy enought to be able to find & install it anyway.
Exception to the rule are those packages Debian & co distros deem non-free, but couple of google searchs usually provide the instructions just fine. Same couple of google searches you'd need in windows as well to find the software you need.
