From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

That isn't consumer open source software. Can't remember the last time I've seen something with a massive leak bad enough to cripple userspace and cause OOMKill situations. You're shoehorning a potential issue into a non-existent scenario in the context of this conversation.
Again,
There is a catchphrase in corporate - "Minimum viable product" and it means just that, memory leaks and all.
