Although reliability has something to do with the Linux kernel, obviously, a lot of it has to do with the surrounding GNU and open source software as well, so saying it's all to do with Linux is a a bit short-sighted.

It's clear from the context of the story that the author is using the term "linux" to refer to the entire system, not just the kernel. It's a bit short-sighted to expect everyone on the planet to be on the same GNU/Linux crusade. ;-)
