I'm happy you agree it's wrong.  This means you wouldn't side with the
people who did just that to the GNU operating system, when they
started calling it Linux, would you?

I'd rather see it called the xwindow system if you are going to give any particular chunk more credit than the rest in the name - or perhaps the bourne-shell-comptible system for non-GUI distros, since those are the things you interact with and the rest is best when strictly generic and standards-compliant.
