Yep, it's not just at the kernel level. I was recently working with one of Paypal's APIs. Potentially dozens of parameters to pass, and if one is wrong or missing, always the same error message.
Though come to think of it, EINVAL may actually be more informative and truthful than the error Paypal returns.

Seeing '3.1' mentioned as the next kernel version in this article caused me to throw a momentary mental EINVAL.

I understand that Linux for Workgroups is coming next year. Linux 95 can't be far behind (and will be universally reviled).

Linux is not totally free of this. If you've ever used sendmsg()/recvmsg() you have probably encountered a similar problem...
