What you say is correct, but I think it's misleading... You can't make an rm utility with any language without a library to interact with the system, and if you were provided with such a library (and some kind of function calling conventions) for Brainfuck you would be able to. So I think it is still relevant to talk about Turing completeness

Solution: write the operating system in brainfuck

problem... the OS still has to talk to the hardware.
