I don't understand. Which part of this article explains
why you won't use the expression "GNU/Linux"? Is it this
selection?:
"""
[...] For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free
programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating
system, as well as its variant, the GNU/Linux operating system.
This $&%$& demands everything to be labeled in a way which credits him
and he does not stop before making completely wrong statements like
"its variant".
"""
In other words, you feel that the term "GNU/Linux" improperly
credits RMS, attributing work to GNU that was done by others?
