   I wasn't familiar w/ that use of the term orthogonal; so I looked it up   
   in the wiktionary and the wp.   
      
   I'm still not sufficiently familiar that I'm prepared to actually use it   
   in that context, but I agree that it is correct, considering the   
   'flexibility' of the orthogonal term.   
   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonality   
      
   I also searched on comparing orthogonal and mutually exclusive which was   
   productive.   
      
   And, I read an article about running snap w/o systemd, such as w/ MX.   
   I'm understanding that snap has some 'soft dependencies' on systemd that   
   should be solved.   
      
   I think my choice would be to say, "Systemd and snap are two different   
   things."
