I know about that page. I've read it. I just don't agree with it. Just because it's written in a FAQ doesn't mean it automatically refutes arguments when cited. It just represents GNU's opinon on the matter, an opinion I don't agree with.
The percentage of Linux's contribution doesn't really matter. Operating systems manage hardware and support the execution of programs. That's what Linux does. To me, most of GNU is just wrappers around Linux system calls plus some additional logic. The most significant GNU program being GCC of course.
I think this way because I'm a programmer who likes working with small Linux systems. GNU takes the perspective of a user of POSIX-like systems.

I think all useful code should matter, not just that which you like more. GNU "wrappers" are used by people a lot, and to most people Linux would be totally useless without them.
