I believe such market domination in the technological stack that powers most servers isn't evident but I would appreciate a citation. In addition, market domination in any market domain is determined by several complex factors.

Those servers use that stack as a component in closed systems, exactly the way Apple and Google use open source as part of their closed systems. Frankly the argument that Linux powers servers is a red herring. Look around at the devices people use. Yes, some hackers like us use Linux boxes. Yes, there are some possibilities opening with things like the raspberry pi. No, open systems are not succeeding in displacing closed ones. Recommending people buy a closed system instead of one which is open source to punish the company for not complying with an ideology does not help the growth of open source.
