- It’s "Mac OS", not "macOS", or even "MacOS" (which is the title on the actual page).
That said, this is some serious wizardry. I wish I had one of these to play with.
- This is correct, and interestingly enough in one of the screenshots, the OpenFirmware prompt says "To continue booting the MacOS" too.

Pre-OS X (what actually runs in the blog post) it was Mac OS. Then, it was Mac OS X. The first version styled macOS was 10.12 Sierra in 2016.

Of course.
- Apple’s own style guide says to use the name of the appropriate release: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/applestyleguide/apsg72...
- That’s anachronistic. For example you’d say macOS Tahoe but Mac OS X Leopard and Mac OS 9.1.
- And going back a little further, I believe it was "System 7.5.5" etc. until Mac OS 8.5 or so?
- I think Mac OS 7.6 was the first to have the branding
- While we are on the subject it is also worth pointing out additionally:
When saying Mac OS X, it’s pronounced Mac OS ten, not Mac OS ex.
- "Mac? Oh, Sex!" is how everyone pronounces it. Very few people "properly" say Mac Oh Ess Ten.
- No, that's what perverts do with the Darwin native executable format.
