If they get caught

Won't get caught if it's closed source...

I like GNOME because I don't want customizability.

OK, I like a bit of customizability, but I'm not a designer and trying to make things look consistent and nice is a pain. I once spent days making an icon theme work in Xfce (the freedesktop standards for naming icons are not followed by anyone... (meaning both Xfce and icon themes))

I use GNOME as is and accept it and everything is swell.

Also I use a laptop and I'm addicted the three-finger swipe window preview...

That's because of monopolies... There are only two brands of PC CPUs you could own...

The *NIX philosophy, that you describe, is having a bunch of small programs do specific tasks. Monolithic means having one large thing do all the tasks. Maybe the confusion comes from the fact that the Linux kernel is monolithic. They tried to make a FOSS Unix clone before Linux was a thing, but I think they failed (see GNU Hurd). What it means for a kernel to be monolithic or not, I have no idea... I assume the same, but on the kernel level.

What's going on?! Everyone claiming they own X... while in fact everyone owns X...

It depends on the drugs...

Pretty sure X has existed since Ancient Greece at least. Maybe even the Phoenicians before the Greek alphabet?

Pretty sure that's the opposite of monolithic

I don't think it's arbitrary. I think people eat the ones that are tasty...
