Advantages as compared to what?

-- Debian on Intel? 
   +++ powerpc has better RAS features than Intel, for example, 
       my favorite, PCI error handling and recovery, or hotplug cpu,
       dynamic LPAR configuration, etc. 

-- SuSE/RedHat on PowerPC?
   +++ SuSE/RedHat offer formal support, for $$$, which debian/ubuntu do not

-- AIX on pSeries?
   +++ AIX has various "enterprise" features that Debian does not.

You might try talking to RedHat/SuSE product support, and also to IBM
pSeries sales.
