Stop with this "because." Of course! Because OS X and Windows are made deliberately as popular operating systems. The "duh" bell just isn't loud enough, is it?
The old saying that Linux is for geek, and other OSes are for regular computer user is still quite true. The truth is, half of the time I don't touch the root of OS X. Why would I need to. I use brew to install my git, I am good. Similarly I don't modify my Ubuntu workstation unless I have a reason to. I can't remember the last time I needed to edit anything really special to get my Mac customized or let along attaching a debugger to a running process on Mac. Well my work doesn't involve troubleshooting Mac software so there is no incentive. I spend more time on customizing my VIM then customizing my OS X.
So back to reality, please use what fits your desire and your mileage. I just need a computer in a Linux-like environment so I can navigate shit around and complete my work on a nice polished computer.
