I am able to add new custom close reasons and retire old ones, but I understand that this will mess up our stats and that CMs can edit the existing reasons. So I am escalating this to ask that the text of this custom close reason be changed to the substantially clearer proposed text here.

Currently, one of the OToff-topic close reason's text is the following:

This is not about Ubuntu. Questions about other Linux distributions can be asked on Unix & Linux, those about Windows on Super User, those about Apple products on Ask Different and generic programming questions on Stack Overflow.

Can it be changed to mention official Ubuntu Flavors instead of just Ubuntu? This is a suggestion of mine:

This is not about an official Ubuntu flavor. Questions about other Linux distributions can be asked on Unix & Linux, those about Windows on Super User, those about Apple products on Ask Different and generic programming questions on Stack Overflow.

I just changed the first sentence to say "official Ubuntu flavor" instead of just "Ubuntu" with a link to the on-topic help center artcle.
