I don't see cloning UNIX every piece of hardware with a CPU as positive, so it isn't a valid point for me. As computer nerd I favour diversity just like I had the pleasure to enjoy during the 8 and 16 bit home computing days. Vertical integration of computers with a soul, full stack experience. “Using UNIX is the computing equivalent of listening only to music by David Cassidy.” — Rob Pike

That's your use case. Mine is that the Unix environment is a preferred one, particularly on a device which is nominally a Unix derivative (Linux -> Android) but which fails to deliver in its stock incarnation. Termux doesn't solve that problem entirely, but it does remarkably well given the underlying limitations.
