I do have respect for you; however, I have one simple question. Should I call my system GNU/Linux/XFree86/KDE in order to give most everyone proper credit?
See http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html#many.
Favorable or not, "Linux" has become the symbol for a whole system of free software.
The meaning attached to this symbol is one we disagree with (see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/why-gnu-linux.html), so we will not accept it as the symbol of our work.
I see a hint of "give up, it's hopeless" in your message. In that context, see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html#lost.
