From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

True, but for this purpose it's totally fine.
There's also a big disclaimer at the top of the file:
cat grub.cfg
DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE
It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates
from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub
Wording could probably be less DOOM SHALL BEFALL YE, as long as you aren't messing around and just adding logging it's not an issue.

Indeed, just wanted to make sure people are aware. :)
