as well as my VoIP phone gateway software. as well as Mac software it is 
unix based but NOT meant for it's user to interact with unix commands or 
even know it is.

Just opposite to FreeBSD/amd64.

Nothing wrong to use FreeBSD (because of zero-restriction BSD licence) 
this way and actually used that way often - eg. Juniper routers.

But why so many people here want everyone (or at least a lot of ordinary 
people) to use it willingly, while 99.9% of people will not be able to 
ever learn any unix? or actually any software except of point and click.

No idea.
