That reports information about the kernel, no the world/user-space.
FreeBSD uname has a option that gives a clue about user-space ( -U
for the ABI version number ) but linux does not.

That is just about the linux kernel.

# more /etc/os-release=20
PRETTY_NAME=3D"Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)"

I'll note that having 6.1.19 of the linux kernel is
far more recent than a standard Debian GNU/Linux 11
(bullseye) distribution . . .

https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=3Ddebian

reports "11 bullseye" as having 5.10.46 for its standard
kernel.
