I do not know if that is a "valid perspective" or not, but I think that
the categorical statement ("necessary consequence") contained in it is
false.

The license used for the Linux kernel certainly does not cast the widest
possible net but I do not see significant fragmentation, quite the
contrary. There is essentially one and the same kernel used by (almost)
all Linux distributions (with rather small modifications).

(Generally: When a net is to wide it can get teared up.)

Cheers,
