Well, personally *my distro* (custom NixOS, just a small set of configs and an oneliner to build the custom iso) just work OOB, OSX for me do not work at all, certainly not with the default setup. It's empty, it completely miss tools I use, and makes automated deploy of them not much easier, so... IMVHO "just work" means: "i know a certain environment and I'm lost outside it so I ask why others are not equal" like you go to another country and ask why people there talk another language, differently written and so hard to use (for you, of course)...
