FWIW Nintendo's Horizon OS is also built from scratch (and isn't Unix at all), and has also shipped on a massive amount of units (over 110M as of 2022).

Fair point, but it's not an open platform, so not a lot of developers will encounter it. Symbian was open in the same sense as Windows or macOS.

But the point is that crazy thing was not what the developer said was the hardest to deal with. Doesn't matter much that it's closed or not many developers see it, he does.
