Can you tell us how Indiana will solve it anyway?

In theory, by having a reference platform. But that doesn't actually
solve the problem. People can always create incompatible
distributions.

The theory is that by having a reference distribution, no one will
want to deviate from the reference in incompatible ways because they
value compatibility.

It won't solve the issue of a packaging system, etc.
