Try being specific: why *must* *everything* be reimplemented multiple times?

I'm not sure if everything must be reimplemented multiple times, but everything should be capable of being reimplemented multiple times so that components can be torn out and replaced with better ones. That has been a significant way that Unix/Linux has made progress. Of course it's helpful to have standardized interfaces so that new implementations can be drop-in compatible with old ones. It may even be helpful to have multiple implementations of critical infrastructure so that it can be replaced quickly if it's ever discovered to have critical flaws.
