The Free Software folks would call this "GNU's not Unix is Unix".  We 
just call it Linux.  I tried Bellinix and Shillix a couple of years ago 
and was unimpressed, perhaps they have improved.

The answer to why is to look at the sponsor.  Nexenta, creates a NAS 
appliance based on SUN's ZFS file system, which is supposedly scalable 
to a huge size.  So, Nexenta_OS is for data centers and storage 
warehouses I guess.
