Yes, I am just moving the 'dividing line' you make closer
to reality, i.e. most major application on all platforms
these days use dynamic linking quite extensively ..
and they do it because it is MORE reliable on that
scale.

Define 'os'! Do you include X windows as part of the OS?
How about GUI support eg GTK? (Win32 has kernel support for
parts of the GUI stuff). What about OpenGL libs?
You could ask, eg Debian developers how they'd go maintaining
the Debian archive without dynamic linkage ..
