You'd have a better argument saying Google Container Engine isn't Linux.

(Because it ain't; the "kernel" of a container running on Google Cloud is a userspace application called gVisor. It's just compatible with Linux syscalls. gVisor happens to run on Linux currently, but I don't see why they couldn't port it, you pretty much just need a KVM- or ptrace-like API, and Go platform support.)
