Why I cannot remove libunity9 in Xubuntu?

Since I don't use unity, why I cannot remove libunity9 package in Xubuntu?

Remove this package will also remove many software such as: brasero, shotwell and usb-creator-gtk



$ sudo apt-get remove libunity9

Oh my... I just realized that canonical try to force us to use unity. This is terrible.

I choose to remove libunity and will compile those software from upstream.

Thanks
