I think emacs is the winner here. It's true beauty is that most users have remapped everything so all you can do is bruteforce your way to the exit.

And where do you get exiting an OS? We don't know... maybe another OS...



Usually people don’t remap the menus much so I think if you clicked around the modeline enough you could pull up some help and eventually figure out the binding for kill-emacs or execute-extended-command.
