Yes, and it is true that Windows probably has as much a mess in this as
"Linux" does....BUT....

While Microsoft's mess changes from release to release, the "Linux mess"
changes in two dimentions:

Release by release

AND

Distro by distro

and since the distros change at a non-uniform rate and path...

..the "picture" of Linux audio can not even be drawn unless you invoke
the fifth dimension (and I am not talking about the music group).
