Yes, but how far apart will the fracture be? For instance, Mac and Windows are further apart than Ubuntu and Fedora, despite both being fractures in the OS 'ecosystem' - it's far easier to be cross-platform between Ubuntu/Fedora than between Mac/Windows.

Anaconda is a good example of this.
Most forks eventually die.
I'm not sure immortality is a good standard to hold forks to. the original project won't last forever either.
There is yet one to exist that dies before its forks.
LibreOffice has overtaken OpenOffice.
Blink has overtaken WebKit.
KHTML is dead.
Netscape is dead.
SBCL is way more popular than CMUCL
The EGCS fork killed GCC
Most !== All

Ah yes, of course, no true fork has outlived its upstream project, how silly of me.

Then why did you say, "There is yet one to exist that dies before its forks."
Sure sounds to me like you meant "all".
Firefox vs Netscape?
Most !== All
Just take the L lol
