A big problem is that the Linux world loves to fragment itself.

There is no "Linux" to bundle. You have to pick a distro.

On the surface all major distros look like a good choice, but for unclear reasons they're all incompatible with each other despite doing the same things in the same ways.

For techies it doesn't matter because they can get any distro to work if one works. But it matters a lot for non-techies because things like tribal knowledge and even packages are all incompatible.
