The problem with Linux is it's a disjointed hodgepodge that makes it
difficult for anyone less than a 'Pro' to configure.

And indeed, Linus (and/or other core kernel developers) has stated that
Linux has no roadmap, and is 'evolutionary' rather than 'designed'.
OTOH, other *nix flavors, like OpenBSD, have well-documented frameworks
and development goals.
