Yes, I fully understand and agree with all of that. However, I think it is still not accurate to say that apps run operating systems. More accurate to say that apps embed operating systems or are themselves bundled with operating systems (such that they can run on bare metal). And, MirageOS (http://www.openmirage.org/) takes this concept to its logical conclusion.
