That’s only tangentially similar to Inferno, and completely unlike Plan9.

Even for Inferno the idea was to make the system flexible, Android is everything but.

Lol. Accessing a file in android is a mess.
Depends on the point of view regarding OS APIs.
As a user i do not use APIs. I use apps. And every attempt to save something is an exercise in pain.

Just inside the device ;)

Everywhere was intended on the context of OS stack.
