I must admit that the ability to randomly bind on top of your "drivers" to arbitrarily overwrite functionality, whether to VPN somewhere by binding a target machine's network files, or how rio's windows were merely /dev/draw proxies and you could forward windows by just binding your own /dev/draw on the target, holds a special place in my heart. 9front, if nothing else, is fun to play with. I just don't necessarily consider it the most optimal or most performant design.

(I also have an entirely irrational love for the idea the singular /bin folder with no concept of $PATH, simply having everything you need bound on top... I hate $PATH and the gross profile scripts that go with it with a passion.)
