For people asking why Urbit created new programming languages and architecture, this is big reason why. Owning something should mean that you are able to fix it. A single person can peak under the hood of the entire OS and know what's going on (provided they learn the language). This is inconceivable even in something like Linux. Simplicity is required for true ownership.
