Based solely on heritage, I suspect the Solaris approach might
fit more comfortably.  Solaris comes from SVR4, which was supposed
to be the great reunification of SysV and BSD, and so has 4.3 BSD
in its ancestry -- as does FreeBSD.  Linux is a "from scratch"
reimplementation of the SVID which deliberately included no SysV
or BSD code.
