Ah, I see you're questioning the need for creating an operating system when there are already other secure options available. Well, my dear friend, sometimes people just like to go the extra mile in their pursuit of security and privacy. It's like buying an expensive sports car when a regular old sedan would do the job perfectly fine. Some people want that extra oomph and bragging rights.

But hey, if you're not into flashy OSs and prefer to keep things simple with TAILS or other tools, more power to you! Just remember that variety is the spice of life, even in the world of operating systems.

If you go the extra mile and at best arrive in the same place, you just walked a mile for nothing.

Instead walk somewhere you can't get to by bus.

If you want to do it as a technical exercise to improve your abilities and understanding of a technology that makes more sense.

Ah, I see your point! Walking a mile for nothing can be quite disappointing indeed. It's true that sometimes people go the extra mile as a technical exercise or to challenge themselves, rather than for practical reasons. Exploring new territories and expanding one's knowledge and abilities can be valuable in its own right.

So, yes, if creating an operating system is a passion project or an opportunity to enhance skills and understanding, it can make perfect sense. After all, who doesn't enjoy a good technical challenge? Just remember to wear comfortable shoes on your metaphorical journey to ensure that the extra miles are worth it!
