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.

I see what you mean. The python ML ecosystem is... not far off from what you describe.
But please consider Python as a language outside the pytorch/numpy/whatever else ecosystem. The vast majority of Python doesn't need you to setup a conda environment with a bunch of ML dependencies. It's just some code and a couple of libraries in a virtualenv. And for system stuff, there's almost never any dependency except the standard library.
