I don't see anything technical in your explanation. If there's a goal to create a system using only GNU tools, that's a political goal, not a technical one.

Is it really the goal of the GNU project to give birth to GNU (The GNU System)?. I thought Stallman announced that goal met long ago (with the Linux kernel being the kernel of the GNU system).
