The same thing is going to happen at the app level on Google and Apple platforms. Android tried to have modular cooperating software, but both the early dominance of iPhone in the developer community, and developer interests in having monolithic apps made that effort fail.
Now both Google and Apple are making app interfaces legible and on-device tool calling discoverable. This will change apps in interesting ways.
