The GNU Operating System can have more than one thing. It already
does: Look at GNOME and GNUstep for example. GNOME is more popular but
both are official GNU packages. GNU already has two official kernels:
HURD, and Linux-libre was also made an official GNU package back in
2012. But, really, the GNU Operating System is whatever RMS says it is.
