ON THE OTHER HAND, I still think that its possible to do a completely new roll-out of an alternative system, based on new hardware and software.
I'm not arguing that - I'm just saying that calling the Pi a "small PC" is doing a disservice to the scope, direction, and goals of the whole project.

Exactly.
I never said the OS wasn't developed for Amiga, just that it didn't start out that way.
Except that every part of it other than the filesystem/CLI most certainly did...
