   No, that’s part of what the “Unix philosophy” is about, or perhaps   
   better renamed the “*nix philosophy” now, since the one OS still in   
   common use that has licensed the “Unix” trademark does not, and   
   actually has never (since its NextStep days) abided by that   
   philosophy.   
      
   No, the macOS GUI is *not* a separate, modular layer, like on Linux.   
   Are there alternative GUIs available, like on common Linux distros?   
   Can you install it without a GUI at all, like on Linux, and administer   
   it remotely via SSH? Can you login on text consoles, like on Linux?   
      
   No, and no, and no.
