Why the defensive tone? I never claimed one or the other, but as a user, I would just like to see it fixed.

Please don't tell me what I should be installing. I _like_ nvm and similar tools for other languages, and would like to keep using them without my operating system (or anyone else for that matter) dictating what software to use and why.

Of what, exactly? Of some Unix interoperability ideal? Sure, it has its place. But I'd argue that improving the user experience is even more important, and when user land tools break because of a choice of OS/toolchain, something is wrong there.
