There is a lot wrong with that statement.

Imagine you’re working on/with a software FOO that is not yet
packaged in Debian. Say it comes from the Macintosh world, so
it does not build out-of-the-box.

Common sense states that you need to port it to the Debian OS
instead of Debian providing those Macintosh-specific APIs FOO
uses.

GNOME is not special.
