True, but Linux and UNIX are not the same thing, even though many keep mixing it up.

Actually, Linux is very explicit about not being a UNIX.
However, the topic would appear to be Windows, Linux and potentially also macOS. That's what the benchmarks are about. No one mentioned other OS's.
Which is why no one should use it as an example how UNIX works.
No one is! You're the one who brought up UNIX. The rest of us is commenting on a benchmark of specifically Windows, Linux and macOS. Only one of those was temporarily considered UNIX, and most disagreed with the label.
