Yes, we agree that OS X is successfully has all requirements to be called Unix. But I think that's just a title, nothing more. When you are saying "OS X is Unix", you are really saying "OS X is fully Unix Complaint". We're talking almost only about interfaces!
So what you are saying is that one of the few operating systems that has the genuine right to be called "Unix" isn't really Unix because it has a user interface that ordinary users are comfortable with. And then you are using this to argue that Unix can't present an interface that ordinary users can be comfortable with?
I can't argue with that sort of logic.
No, I never said that.
First, I never mentioned ANYTHING about UIs.
Second, read a little bit before posting. When I say "interfaces" I'm talking about thinks like a libc or POSIX. An interface is a abstraction that an implementation must provide. An "user interface" is a type of "interface".
Third, I agree that OS X's GUI is great, but just never touched that topic, as said in argument #1.
Fourth, it has the right to be called Unix® just because the Single Unix Specification states so. Nothing more.
Fifth, do you think you can't argue with "that sort of logic", but I can with yours? No!
