OpenBSD it's just "sh /etc/netstart if", where if is the network interface once you set /etc/hostname.if

No WPA incantations, the OS handles multiple connections seamlessly.

With that, magicpoint/sent and xrandr you just don't care, it works.

OpenBSD is actually a good example of a system that envisions a holistic experience. Sure its experience is that of one for a techie nerd, but it's still very experience oriented. This is a pretty big contrast from suckless which creates small tools that only kinda work together and claim the code as documentation. OpenBSD docs are wonderful.
