And rewrite every configuration manager and local environment
configuration script from the last few decades. And discard the File
System hierarchy, at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard . And
rewrite all the selinux rules. And oh, yes, let's ignore systemd's
unique interpretations of where config files go. And oh, yes, discard
/etc/sysconfig/.

Better yet, let's spend the time somewhere that actually does someone some good.
