No I am in the same camp. I hate complexity. There's too many crumbs of utilities to reassemble into the entire loaf of functionality. Hence I haven't tried installing arch in a long while (I use endeavorOS as my daily) and I haven't tried running nix. The need has not arisen yet.

LOL, LMAO even.
(PS. since you said please. But I think it's cool. (I guess? I am too much of a grandpa to care so: That's lovely, my dear))
sadly, most likely yes.
The problem with your argument is that you are phrasing that as a problem with how the OS is not able to do what you want. But Linux is able to do whatever you ask it to. The real problem is companies.
Most of the problems Windows users have with Linux is "Software X is not working in Linux" followed by "Alternative Software Y is too weird/quirky/broken on Linux". This used to be a problem with Gaming. With the investment of Valve into Linux, the scene there has dramatically shifted. Yet, you have cases like that of Roblox whose software is clearly capable of running on Linux but they deliberately hobble it and only support Windows. The important thing is that free software is written and maintained by people in their free time for free. So you can't expect the same level of polish as a dedicated company working on the software (Of course I can point to beautiful exceptions like Blender, VLC, etc.)
So essentially the problem is two fold:
- Software/Game vendors don't want to support Linux
- Microsoft benefits from having it this way so they bribe their way into having Windows on retail hardware.
Nowadays you can find laptops from manufacturers like Tuxedo or Framework, or even Dell/Lenovo where if you chose to go without windows they often discount your purchase by $100 or in some cases even $200!
So it turns out Microsoft got greedy and is charging like 10% of hardware price as the cost of having Windows pre-installed. (Citation needed, I learnt it here on the fediverse)
You and other people who want their stuff to just work are correct about the assessment of what needs to happen in Linux for it to catch up with Mac or Windows, but are incorrectly attributing the steep gradient set by Microsoft/Apple to inadequacy on the part of Linux.
The incentives are for scammers.

Stackoverflow is for senior devs to clown on junior devs. It's the inverse of helping juniors.
I can't cater to everyone's needs.
Can't wait for the law to slap you in the face someday.
oh nevermind.. carry on then (Tis a joke about not wanting to touch THAT mess, in case it's not clear)
I don't know the details of the MPK. So I consider it as some kind of function that maps {process PID, DLL} => Set of UID. And by UID, I AM talking about the system level user ID. Remember that this feature is a processor level feature. So it has to be transparent to the OS (well at least, to the OS Scheduler). Hence the output of this feature should be understandable to the OS kernel. Or so I hope as the implementation details are vague till now.
which office are you? I am missing such fresh perspectives. Everybody wants someone with 10 years experience in 5 different stacks on 5 different languages/tools.
they don't solve them. They make it harder for you to make mistakes. Doesn't stop a capable developer from still introducing vulnerabilities.
that html page without js and just links is MORE secure than anything with JS.
