To me there is no such thing as an advanced distro, it just a matter of personal preference, and what the developers put into it, so no that does not necessarily make it more advanced - I say Mint is "advanced" because it is so advanced it is simple to use because the developers made it that way. You can make one version be something else by simply installing the software or compiling it yourself.
Some say, some distros are harder to use then others, (i.e. terminal intensive) and because it is harder to use makes it "more advanced" this is a misnomer - you can look at like because the developers did not take the extra time to simplify their software installations or terminal usage which can make it more of a learning curve to use and therefore not as advanced as say Mint which automates some of those processes
