The Novell Netware model adapted to the VM era is what makes sense, where the tools don't require logging in to the server at all in order to administer the environment.

What? You absolutely had to authenticate to administer a Netware server, unless you did it from the console in the early days. That is logging in. If you don't think so, then neither is passwordless rsh, or ssh with a key and no password.

Legacy macOS 10 was never meant as a server OS

Back when the OS MacOS is now based on was created, there was no distinction between workstation and server OSes. Therefore MacOS X not being intended as a server OS is a downgrade from the prior product... like many of the changes Apple made, especially the UI ones.

as you shovel this garbage onto your audience you should know that your audience does, in fact, know the difference.

Some of them will. Some of them will have absolutely no clue, just like now.

AI hallucination in a factual broadcast is like catshit on a pizza: It doesn't matter how infrequent it is, no amount is acceptable.

To thinking people, yes. A lot of people are listening to podcasts to figure out what to think.
