Could you build this?

No Building a custom security-oriented operating system distribution requires low-level kernel configuration, package management, and Linux distro build engineering.

What it would actually take: Creating a dedicated OS involves configuring a Linux kernel, selecting and hardening base system components (e.g., using Debian Live Build, Arch ISO tools, or Yocto), and pre-integrating customized networking, VPN/DoH resolver daemons, and security toolchains. This requires substantial Unix systems administration, kernel networking expertise, and secure build pipeline engineering.
