I beg to differ, and I think a lot of people will disagree with you. Regardless, your snarky remark fails to state any problems with the Linux kernel, or identify what you consider a "good" kernel.

I think he meant there is nothing good about complexity and bringing down the whole system on a crash. For the Linux kernel this is probably an unfortunate necessity, for an init system it is not.

He's probably thinking about some kind of micro kernel (which are pretty cool), or redundant CPUs (which probably wouldn't help much)?
