OpenMacOS™ is 22M lines if you include the entirety of the files, and 16M counting just the lines with code on them. Granted I think that number is across the whole base distribution which makes it smaller than the WSL kernel alone. But OpenMacOS™ is still REALLY fat compared to operating systems of the past. FreeDOS is ~50k lines, and then there are things like KolibriOS to consider.

That video is pure gold!

I'll revise my article wrt OpenMacOS™ but it's the most evil when seen wrt usability. I doubt it's that gigantic though! How do you visualize the solution? Writing from scratch targeting an embedded board?
