OpenSSH was ported from BSB because there was no alternative in Linux. If not for GNU available for Linus, we would have now flame wars Red Hat vs Canonical coreutils. X was fine 20 years ago as a prototype. In the meantime, we could have Linux Foundation to create a modern alternative. Instead, we have two competing solutions MIR and Wayland that still do not work very well. The reason we have such clusterfuck of incompatible distributions is that Linux is one man show. Instead of bringing industry toghether, Linus is doing his own thing. In meantime distributions instead trying to create useful userspace software are repackaging, porting and competing on init systems.... Next pointless war on the horizon snap vs flatpak.

pretty much all your assertions are factually incorrect, and show a significant immaturity on your part regarding your work experience in this ecosystem. This might help: http://www.google.com http://www.google.com OpenSSH was ported from BSB because there was no alternative in Linux The original version of SSH was available for Linux, before OSSH or OpenSSH where developed. X was fine 20 years ago as a prototype Chortle. X stopped being a prototype around 1985/1986 and has powered more systems then I bet you had hot meals and changes of underwear. The reason we have such clusterfuck of incompatible distributions is that Linux is one man show. Instead of bringing industry toghether, Linus is doing his own thing Now you are just trolling.

  SSH Orginal version became proprietary and was forked by BSD developers. Later portable version was created for Linux and other operating systems. You have now situation critical protocol and implementation is maintained by OpenBSD Foundation. [0]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Shell#History_and_development https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Shell#History_and_devel... X was not intended for the desktop. It was used as a prototype because there was nothing better. We are stuck with an ancient client-server architecture that cannot properly display video playback inside the browser. I respect your opinion, but you just ignore anything in your holy temple of Linux.
