    Enzy’s point is that Linux isn’t an OS but just the kernel, so the core part of the OS. That point is technically correct but practically utter bullshit. It’s generally only pushed by pedants who have nothing better to do, because all the grown-ups in the room easily understand what’s meant when someone refers to an OS called Linux (namely, Linux distributions, which contain a whole OS running on a provided Linux kernel).
