OS is much more than a "foundation", Firmware would be better equated to a "foundation" than an Operating System is
as a basic example, I can put pretty much anything anywhere I want. This could cause more problems than it's worth but I have the flexibility to do that if I wish

Anyways you're a PC gamer so you have no interest in OS X, so I'm not trying to convince you to switch.
For me I use computers for things other than games & I have been using OS X since Panther (10.3) & Windows since 3.11. In that time there has been plenty of moments where I've thought "I'd rather be doing this on a mac" or "this would be so much simpler on a mac" not once have I thought "I wish I was doing this on Windows" or "man I miss Windows"

So you can move things about and put them in place? Sounds exactly like a foundation. I can put pretty much anything I want anywhere I want on windows too. Still not seeing your mighty osx advantage there.
