Yes! This is exactly my point. As you pointed out, there are plenty of
options, but for a new linux to happen this strange alchemy of
technology _and_ person _and_ timing need to happen I think, and that is
very difficult to consciously engineer.

I think the closest to Linus we have is Theos influence in the OpenBSD
project.

I really would like to see a different file system in OpenBSD, otherwise
it does seem like a nice candidate. FreeBSD does receive (or did at
least) some suppor from Netflix and Netapp I think, but I don't know if
that is still happening.
