PS I keep forgetting that the concept of 'a single

a selling point so the PC world never got a UNIX like product for the
86's/286's to replace DOS. OS/9 (6809) did come close but a bit to late
for unix like product.
If you look at the release notes for MS-DOS 2.0, Microsoft was pretty
clear in stating that at some point, the development path for DOS and
XENIX was supposed to merge.
I guess that objective went the way of new versions of Microsoft OS/2...
