Yes and no
Only yes. GNU software is irrelevant for anything being Linux (lots of other Linux distributions use no GNU software at all, most notably embedded variants using musl and Busybox). The kernel being a modified one is also irrelevant because almost every distribution ships patches to the kernel. The only person who can revoke Android being Linux is Linus Torvalds, not some random YouTuber named Gary.
Fact is, Microsoft ships Linux-based products and even if it's highly unlikely what they will switch the Xbox business to release Linux hardware, the outright statement "that’ll literally never happen" is ignorant.
True, I was just nit-picking rather than disagreeing with your original statement
The original statement wasn't by me. o_0
I know, I meant I wasn't disagreeing with your first comment about Microsoft using Linux!
