no it hasn't.

android is not a full linux distro. it's the linux kernel, with
android built on top of it. all apps are written to android apis, not
linux.

"Linux," is /ONLY/ that kernel. Everything else in a Linux distro is
either GNU tools or software written elsewhere. "Linux," is not a
company nor a distro and makes no other software than the kernel.
GNU/Linux distros are what most are familiar with but Android is a
Linux distro just as much as is Debian or Red Hat. Different toolset
and software is all.

Excellent clarity.
And Windows Phone OS is... was... ?
A loser alright, but is it Windows 10 kernel? I heard Windows 10
described as a giant phone designed by teletubbies.
