That analogy only holds if increased OSX adoption is somehow inherently detrimental to Linux users. I don't see them competing with each other directly that much, as right now both OS are gaining primarily through Windows converts. The vast majority of hackers and power users aren't going to drop Linux completely for OSX, they'll just double boot or VM, and having a more Unix-centric focus in mainstream computing can only help to promote Linux software development.
