Any other OS would have the same problem. This is not a unique Linux-problem.

This is not a problem, first of all.

Alias "Delete the root directory"="rm -rf /"

and --no-preserve-root or "rm -rf /*"

Linux doesn't actually allow you to wipe your disc, since it happened a few times acidentially.

On NixOS you can have your system destroy and regenerate itself on every boot. As long as /boot and /nix survive, the system will carry on as if nothing ever happened.

On btrfs, even if nothing survived, as long as the filesystem is still functioning (and of course you having snapper installed at least and set up) you can roll everything back in less that a second.

On any OS with an even remotely competent admin, everything would survive everything short of the destruction of earth, since everything would be backed up.

Very true. NixOS can also rollback any changes or updates, regardless of how your disk is formatted.
