Linus is also basically the most nerdy luddite to have ever existed. His opinions on a LOT of tech past the 90s is highly suspect.

Its both a upside and a downside. Its part of the reason the Linux kernel is so reliable. But it's also been a repeating source of issues around him over the years to various degrees.

I have recurring thoughts that the kernel needs to undergo a clear fork. One branch continues on as it is today. A new branch agressively restricts scope, drops support for sub 0.1% market (in use, not last quarter's sales) share hardware - and software. Focuses intensively on making that core functionality as reliable and secure as possible. New features? No thanks, plenty of existing features already.
