Perhaps you are studying the wrong things? Stuff that could be learned from
UNIX includes improving the file-locking paradigm (in UNIX all files always
appear to be "closed", so (for example) you can read an output file from a
background job to check on its progress), and providing transparent access to
PIPEs (something that could be entirely hidden in the shell). Kludges like
the big-ugly-monolith kernel can be ignored.

I highly recommend the original Bell System Technical Journal articles on the
UNIX operating system (July/August 1974, I believe). You should be able to find
them in your local library.
