well your's is a valid use case. I just didn't understand why OP was expecting it to be binary compatible. It's just a distro

Because it's being called a "replacement for Windows and MacOS". I take issue with that, because it's provably not. All use cases are valid. It doesn't matter if you're using it for work or play, there is no invalid use case as long as it works for that user. And if you're touting an OS as a replacement, you have to take that into account.
