Well, it is. Also.
Sure, Single-User-Single-Seat systems are a singular, degenerated case
of Multi-User-Multi-Seat systems.
And hat's really the core here. It's so damned
different in these two cases.
Correct, it means that Single-Seat-Single-User focused approaches often
lack the generality required on Multi-User-Multi-Seat systems. It often
means approaches, which are easily applicable on other OSes, will never
fly on Linux.
