Android has the amount of apps people desire, and they would like to have an N9 or N900 because they also love/like Maemo/MeeGo for its open ness!

The open ness is what makes things like an Android mod possible! So by putting Android on the device, it generates publicity of the N9 and how open it is! May even get a few people to buy the N9 because if they do want the amount of apps and games, they can always switch to Android.

Everybody wins so why do you guys have a problem with something that doesn't affect you in any way and can only make the device more popular and in doing that, better!
Depends. It affects a bit when people are whining here and flooding the board because they are too damn *@# and messed their device(s) up, and this is for the most part of it not an Android-related board. I.e. long story short: it doesn't affect my device, but it affects the interaction with this site and its forums to some degree.

Btw: Do you see talk about Maemo on XDA? No, because they neither sponsor nor want it.

I would probably more ok with it when the result would be more technical and therefore interesting talk, not mostly whiny / demanding texts that sound like they are (support) requests made by teenagers.
