OpenVMS has never "required" a browser for admin tasks or any other for that matter.
Not only is history part of the reason for this, but also the fact that there is often little to do.
I have seen systems that run for years with little to no "admin" because they just WORK.
No reboots, no changes to the apps, little maintenance, automatic backups etc.

How much Linux based admin requires a browser?
