OS and libraries have different roles: an OS manages the sharing of resources between programs, while libraries implement common operations in programs. The abstraction aspect in both really is a side effect. Back to the topic: I think the real obstacle to this USLS idea is that each language has its own idiomatic way to name things, so a common across languages naming scheme or convention will likely look somewhat alien in each of them, and we all know the importance of source code aesthetics for programmers. This might change only if polyglot programming becomes very common.
