Is it really such a bad thing.
Linux kernel was developed by Linus because he thought he could do it better than a computer science professor with years of experience what arrogance.
The whole GNU project was founded on the permise that there could be something better. What development tools are you currently using ?
Most open source software was designed to be better than another piece of software.
To be able to do this you need to be arrogant, and a few other non flattering personal attributes assosiated with youth.
The secret is that the open source (actually open development) environment allows for this and rewards you if you where right and flames you if yo where wrong. But you still need to try.
RMS made a major contribution GNU is the license that most of us use and of course this comes up at least once a week.
The answer is very simply who cares. Whether it's called GNU/LINUX or Linux (Linux being just the kernel) I can setup a linux system with no GNU tools. Again something like GNOME runs on top of Linux on top of GNU software on top of X. But something like a router can easilly be setup to just run on top of Linux.
