That's the definition of dogma.

Things always keep changing; Linux has little to do with PDP-{7,11}
Unix, and it has evolved (and will continue to do so) thanks to
developers not thinking that "rules of thumb" hold the universal
truth. Which, again, would be dogma.

Vertical integration has its merits when you want to bound the
integration tests. So it does non-portability when you don't want to
conform to the minimum common set of features. So it does binary
formats when you care for performance. I could go on, but as I said, I
will not rehash the same discussion from gentoo-user and million other
places.

So, I will finish with this: if you really believe that there are no
more new arguments for new paradigms and design principles, and that
PDP-11 Unix is the answer to life, the universe, and everything, then
go out and find and kill Buddha, please.

Regards.
