Basically, if not GNU, Linux would have stayed a hobbyist project or maybe never even happened.

So should we call it Linux/Torvalds? Linux/Torvalds/Stallman?

Heck, if Earth didn’t exist, Linux wouldn’t have happened, so Linux/Earth/Sun/Biology/Torvalds/Stallman/SystemD/Mesa/PulseAudio/Wayland…

GNU nowadays is a tiny part of the desktop. There’s also projects slowly moving to rewrite it in Rust and a more permissive license, other parts are losing importance like GCC losing to Clang, so its relevance is dying over time. Just like the FSF.

Or Linus would have found some other way to have a userspace and we’d still have Linux but with different tools.
