The true convergence is yet to come... Still future. The phone/tablet and the desktop are not identical yet.

Despite whatever title Mr. Hall might have - the article is posted on his private blog. Where is the official sanction for dropping any modifier after Ubuntu? What is the Title of the latest wiki for install? "Installing Ubuntu for Devices" Absent Canonical calling it simply "Ubuntu," the article you quoted must be taken as op-ed from a blogger. Here's a quote from that wiki to show how Canonical is treating it.
There have been a few changes in how this project is getting promoted. IMHO it's all diluting a brand that Canonical spent well over a year building up in the public mind.
You, and Mr. Hall, can lobby to simply call it Ubuntu, but it isn't the same yet and only adds confusion to the general public.
