I'm talking about BSD the operating system concerning the OP's assertion of managing risk.
Last I checked (years ago), the userspace was implemented partially with musl, which reads

Now, they're announcing running Linux programs on Fuchsia. Sure seems to me they're implementing a Unix-like system, even if their kernel was written from scratch.
The BSD world doesn't consider the userspace very separate from the kernel space, it's all part of a single system.
I would argue it's very much 'based on Unix' as soon as they start adding POSIX APIs. They're adding POSIX APIs because they work.
