If I don't give my editor unambiguous clues about the end of sentences, I can't move sentence-wise, so this is a no-brainer.

Of course, my editor also knows how to strip out unneeded formatting, if required.

Big surprise, buzzah: It's not about you.

Not at all.

You want to merge Linux distributions project for no better reason than your own convenience?

Why should a package maintainer of the Debian community have to deal with the corporate kerfuffle at Red Hat or Suse? Why should an Arch supporter have to deal with the basic democratic shenanigans of the Debian community? And why on earth should someone of the Nix community be coerced to try to make their rather radical approach palatable to any members of any of the other projects?

Different distribution projects exist for different reasons. You're making it explicitly clear that you can't bring yourself to care about these reasons, raising the question why anyone should bring oneself to care about your opinion.

Re: Microsoft Bashing

Not distributions. Desktop environments.

Distributions are e. g. Debian or Nix, ideally embodying principles of OS management.

Desktop environments embody principles of UX in the best cases, which doesn't mean that all of them are actually doing it.

That you apparently can't tell one from the other doesn't speak for your expertise.

Re: Microsoft Bashing

Didn't you just recently demonstrate that you tend to confuse distributions with desktop environments?
