No. They did not. It is hardly common on macOS. The OS runs on Darwin. You can
layer Linux above that if you want.

But say you are right and Apple somehow moved to using Linux as a necessary
part. So? That is what is great about open source -- anyone can use it. If
Apple did this it would not be an issue for Apple or for Linux. It would be a
win for both.

Not sure what you are trying to get at with this.

Choice is good. <shrug>. With macOS being able to run Linux software you get
more choice. How is this a bad thing?

I have a hard time understanding why Linux advocates would see choice as bad.
