Still, no. It's not my fault if somebody else were to misinterpret my statement, it'd be their fault.
Saying "The NT Kernel" does not in anyway imply there is an entire NT operating system out there.
Say, if I said the "Mazda MX-5 Engine" would imply that it is an engine from an MX-5. But, if I said "The Playstation 4 Console" it's not 'redundant', it's describing the item. If it said, "The Playstation 4 CPU" that would be specifying the part of that system, though despite that the Playstation 4 CPU may be agnostic and able to be used on other systems anyway. Perhaps the PS4's CPU could be used in another console down the line, say the Switch 2. Then it would be the Playstation 4 CPU inside the Switch 2.
GNU is not the only thing you can pair with Linux anyway, there is no operating system called Linux, it must always be paired with a set of coreutils, like Plan9, Busybox, or mostly commonly, GNU.
