This is true only from a certain point of view.

>From a different point of view, they're more useful in creating
crossplatform code.  Their lack of heavy POSIX support encourages
programmers to factor out OS-specific code into distinct modules, and
discourages the All The World's A UNIX thinking that so many programmers
fall into.
