This idea is based on a few key points: GNU Coreutils has essentially become the de facto standard with the widespread adoption of GNU/Linux. Apple has been attracting modern developers by being 'Linux-like' (via POSIX-compliant), especially since Linux has largely won the race in the general-purpose Unix-like OS space. Adopting uutils would allow scripts to run much more seamlessly across macOS and Linux. uutils is compatible with GNU Coreutils, and its MIT license avoids the strict restrictions associated with GPLv3. By aligning base commands more closely with Linux, I think this would give macOS another compelling advantage over WSL2 for developers.
