They serve little or no purpose, if not to aggravate and stress the developers (ubi vs maddox is our perfect example) and they only cause to increase the price tag of a game.

.

Ubi is not a distributor, it's an editor. They buy games from studios , sometimes other editors. they also finance games for some studios.
without financing from editors, certains games would not be released (not saying it is the case for Il2 or Cliffs of Dover, I do not know the investment capabilities of 1C or Maddox Games)
They also make their own games. Wether you like these games or not is another question.

Their (Ubi's) attitude towards you & your site (doesn't exist anymore?) was certainly poor to say the least, but since you do not know anything of the relationship between Ubi & Maddox, no need to elaborate on this.
Saying it is a perfect example without having any real information (only an external perspective) is quite a stretch.
