Is there a mainstream distro that disregards all the legacy cruft? Gobo, but that’s not really mainstream.

Mac OS?

NixOS and Guix are fairly established in this regard.

macOS is certified Unix, and necessarily implements the "legacy" cruft.

at some point we gotta let go of legacy stuff tho, and Apple has shown in the past that they're not afraid of doing that.
