In principle I agree with you. But have you seen the state of the rest of the industry? Framework stands out as a bastion of repairability, the rest is mostly garbage.
I’d honestly expect a longer lifetime from a Macbook than almost anything else on the market at this point, especially if we are talking about high performance laptops for ”creative” work. You know, apart from an old Thinkpad, those machines are invincible.
I’m not that well versed on anything Graphene, nor any related drama.
Trust is somewhat non-technical, personal, subjective and dependent on your threat model. You can greatly improve trust via technical means and processes, as well as distribute and communicate trust via technical means. In the end, you still need to trust one or more physical people.
Personally, my biggest issue with any software I use is future maintenance. Can I be certain this will keep working as I want it for the duration I want? Will I get security updates? There, the trust comes from the people and funding involved, seldom technology.
Canonicals non-LTS releases are basically shitty betas. No one sane uses them in production or on their desktop.
If you want to encode information into only the depth of your recursive identically named folders, you have 128 different depths, one character for the name, one for the slash, per level. Yields about 128 possible levels. Leave one off for the last filename, 127.
If we want to name our folders something longer than a single character, we can store less files. If we want to store our files on linux, by default we get 4096 characters to play with, so about 2k levels (unless we compile our own linux kernel with PATH_MAX set for this very specific purpose). If we run CIFS we may be able to reach up to 16k levels.
That was my interpretation of OPs (admittedly bad) idea. Personally, I try to avoid implementing inodes as Church numerals.
Who do you think pays for the bailouts in the end?
You can now have 128 files in your filesystem.

All connectors are compatible given enough violence.
The VGA connector is actually reversible! Once. given enough force. It also doesn’t actually work properly when installed upside down.
Sorry, no OpenGL support.
