NixOS have this feature called specialisation which is used for some minor/major alterations to ur OS config at boot entry. So that u don't have to dual boot 2 #Linux OS for different purposes. Eg: One for normal use, one for gaming/whatever purpose
The customisation difference could be changing from apps to even kernels if u wish.
The most awesome thing is it won't take extra storage like running 2 os. It only takes extra space for the extra config/apps u add.

Closing the gap between vocational and general #education? Evidence from University Technical Colleges in England http://eprints.lse.ac.uk/128193/7/jhr.0223-12768R1.full.pdf
"For students who enter at the non-conventional transition age 14, UTCs have a large detrimental effect on the probability of reaching an acceptable level of English and maths two years later in GCSEs national exams
… For students who enter at the more conventional transition age 16, the results reveal a more positive story. Although UTCs lead to some deterioration in academic achievement at upper secondary level (A-levels), this is far out-weighed by an improvement in vocational qualifications at the same level. UTCs do not influence the probability of going on to university, but they strongly influence the probability of undertaking a #STEM degree, an outcome which has been shown to be associated both with higher earnings and with improved productivity and economic growth …corresponding increase in the probability of being in sustained #employment, which increases by 9 percentage points. There is also a high earnings’ return that this stage, for those in employment.
… Findings highlight the risks of early #specialisation and benefits of aligning #education with students' interests at a suitable stage."

#HX thought; In online platforms, specialisation requires decentralisation.
In decentralised networks, each app is a garden available to anyone in the network to visit. So they are free to focus on doing one set of things well.
Walled gardens must compete with each other by imitation. Trying to be all things to all people, so they don't lose them to competitors.
