There's probably nothing wrong with these things in the context of a
new/different OS oriented to servicing a single user who is assumed to
own the world as a side effect of logging into a magical console
device and starting a GUI where things can pop into existence and chat
with other things easily. But it doesn't have much to do with
unix-like concepts.
