Debian 8 has "long-term support" until 2020-06-30. I only bring this
point up because we still list "Debian" under the "long-lifetime
releases" section, but are excluding the version of Debian that has
"Long-term" in the name.

Pedantic, yes.

Is it worth clarifying that we treat Debian as a "long-lifetime" release
distro, but we do not count their "long-term" support for purposes of
calculating EOL?
