I don't think you'll ever get a definitive answer, and comparing parts
won't help much. My only answer is the same as what Justice Stewart
wrote in 1964. Yes, a z16 is actually a mainframe. Why? Because I
know it when I see it.

In my opinion the only difference between a z16 running z/OS and a Google
server is design philosophy and nothing more. z16 running z/OS is vastly
superior but the ARS Technica article made it clear that people think the z16
is a mainframe. I want to understand the substantive real difference between a
z16 and a Google server. I want to know the difference between any server and
mainframe / z16. Is z16 actually a mainframe?
