For 2, there are enough desktop environments out there that I can't possible see how having another one can make you not gnu/linux
As others have pointed out, neither 4 nor 5 are unique to Ubuntu.
So that leaves only 3 as being remotely close to a reason anyone could even begin to argue is valid, but the fact of the matter is that you don't need a display server or protocol at all to be considered gnu/linux. If someone installs Ubuntu, then uninstalls all display-related stuff so there is nothing Mir related at all, does that magically turn it into gnu/linux?
