GNU is not Unix...

  "GNU is not Unix" is a name, not necessarily the truth. See also: Lame ain't an MP3 encoder, natural gas, DPRK

    So, OS’s that don’t ship with GNU components aren’t Unix? See: any BSD. All of the things you mention in your post have _alternatives_ that also comply with whatever they reference: there are other MP3 encoders, there are other types of gas, there are other democratic republics… And more importantly, GNU isn’t Unix.
