Linux has standards, but virtually none of them are all-encompassing across all the installs. For example: Which distribution? Which desktop manager? Which package manager? Which kernel version?
A Windows install at one location looks and feels — and has the same code and dependencies and is compatible with the same installs and management functions — as any other location, barring specific policy considerations. Same for macOS. Not for Linux.
One can build a Linux standard for their environment, yes; but in my opinion considering Linux itself as “standardized” just isn’t there.
Because it’s not, in my opinion.
