It's technically Unix, but with randomised directories, with illegible logs, with a lot of the openness taken out and replaced by Apple's "our way or the highway". It's Unix for people who didn't want Unix anyway.

Being open has nothing to do with Unix. It was a proprietary OS and most of its descendants are still proprietary.
