Different definition of modular. Build time modular, not run time modular. Yes.
Well with the kernel you can compile a module in or load it dynamically. The kernel as shipped has ext4 compiled in but not BtrFS. Odd that, since the installer takes BtrFS and XFS as the default options, not ext4.
Good for me.
You'd think in that case BtrFS would be compiled in and not ext4. "Obviously" the kernel isn't modular!
On the contrary. The kernel is runtime modular.
Its a stupid argument!
After all, one of those modules is the ability to recognise when systemctl (which, by the way is part of the systemd suite but a separate ... well, program, not 'module') is called as init. If it wasn't for that it would be smaller, eh? Perhaps you'd like to do without that?
Knowing how a program is called is trivial code. I use the trick on some of my scripts.
The real modularity is what comes afterwards. The unit files.
That's like saying a C compiler is modular because it reads an application source code built of a thousand files. No. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
