Most of the bloat is covering bad or outdated architecture.

Imagine starting from scratch with Genode or what Google is doing with their new (3rd) OS.

Google are (only) replacing the kernel. Which I think is the right approach - identify the bits that are holding you back (in this case holding you from taking full control of the os) and replace only those with ones that are as compatible as possible with the existing software.

They're pretty much designing a whole new OS stack actually.
