The biggest I can think of cgroups. The way cgroups connect to processes instead of resources (semantically) and the fact that controllers are different from fundamental entities like schedulers. Of course I don't think "What were we thinking" I remember it all too well in that case. I think "What do we do now that we have made this mess".
