Попалось на глаза интервью с Matthew Dillon основателем #dragonflybsd. https://www.linux-magazine.com/Issues/2022/258/Distro-Walk-DragonFly-BSD

В нём встретил отличную формулировку, которую я на 100% разделяю, относительно пути ядра Linux.

> Over time, though, Linux, DragonFly, and FreeBSD all came to nearly the same place. Not quite the same – Linux focuses a lot more on the ultimate performance, but its kernel mechanisms are considerably more fragile because of that.
