“GNU” was always crappy branding. Nobody wants to read it or say it or explain it. “Linux” sounds cool. So everyone calls the whole system “Linux”.

More people should be aware of GNU part. I hate to see GNU having substantially less financial support than Linux.

The other reason though, is why does GNU think they are so important compared to some pretty important other system components?

Why isn't it GNU/Linux/SystemD/Mesa/Xorg? Basically every Linux desktop could be described that way.
