OS X, a unix based OS, would tend to disagree with you.  And has done a

fairly successful job doing so at that.  The majority of the time that it is

easier to troubleshoot something on #ardour-osx by using the console output,

or using the terminal to enter a command, I have to tell users exactly how

to get to the terminal, many of them don't even know it exists.
