It would have been great if the author could have provided a complete example of the constraints in action, I'm kinda lost on how the third one would look in practice

seems like a made up hook, you come up with something. i like the "everythings a file" idea in linux. you can go a long way with a strong concept like that.

your example also reminded me about the "file over app" concept in Obsidian. this constrain actually limits and shapes the product decisions
