Conway's law means were going to end up with quasi-microkernels.
- See google doing networking and other stuff in userspace to work around lazy phone manufacturers for Android. (And also for servers for entirely different reasons.)
- Imagine vendor lock-in^2 where my app only runs with Linux and Windows via WSL!
- NT and XNU are already that way, probably in-part due to Conway's law
- Various "serverless" cloud gambits will chop things up in different ways
- Maybe the Fuschias of the world will want a WSL too
