Very true. Fully agree to it
Saying, because UNIX is nearly perfect in all respects and hence Linux is too is NOT correct. Linux is a UNIX-system like OS. But keep in mind that UNIX and GNU/Linux are NOT even remotely related as far as code base is concerned. There is actually NO UNIX code in GNU/Linux. This is one of the reason why Linux is FOSS.
