I definitely need to try this. I'm finding that I'm terrible at strategy and long-term planning ... pretty good at tactics. But I kind of end up mostly reacting and not developing something long-term.
I think young people today are expected to find strategy, OS in your terms, by learning a lot of APPs. It is much easier to start with the direction you want a go and build a personal environment that supports it. From then on carefully selected APPs can increase velocity towards the purpose for which the strategy was created. APPs traditionally are tactics while skill implementing the chosen ones provides the logistics.
EG choosing a career will affect many other things in your future. If you choose commerce, the path will be different than for an engineer. Even more different for a career as a poet.
Choosing a goal and inventing an Op Sys to provide the way, identify apps and keeps resources focused on the purpose.
Somehow education never addresses this sort of thing. Does knowing the date of, and the participants in the battle of Waterloo matter? Probably knowing why the battle came to occur and why the strategic defeat of Napoleon was important, and what came next, could matter to someone looking to understand obstacles and how to martial effort to overcome them.
I will take some time to address your article in more depth. I think it is a window into the better system.

That’s exactly the issue I’m trying to tackle. So far, it feels more strategic. Time will tell.
There is also a great detail of variation in this framework.
