Interesting but I don’t really understand its use case, maybe for obsolete legacy software?

Hobby development for an OS not based on BSD/Linux.

For what it's worth, these days it's becoming somewhat more Linux-like in terms of apps.

The original BeOS had its own visual flair and style, as well as some technical achievements that were relevant in the late 90s. I installed a repack version of the final BeOS release in the early 2000s.
