That’s probably more because of MacOS’s FreeBSD heritage. They used BSD tools where they could get them and used gnu where they must.

  Sure. That's true. But follow the rabbit hole. Why do they have a BSD heritage? Why doesn't BSD use GNU software? It's anti-copyleft all the way down. Long before GPLv3.

    Because BSD is older than GNU, and NeXTSTEP was based on BSD.
