No, nobody gives a shit what the kernel is-- the OS is the UI, and the UI is the OS. (Think about it: if Apple ported OS X to run on the NT Kernel, would it still be OS X or would it magically turn into Windows?)
So by your reasoning, if you put KDE on Windows, it becomes Linux? Have fun trying to find a usable terminal.. or any stability.
Optical media almost never gets scratched unless you're eight years old...
Optical media almost never gets scratched unless you don't take care of it. Age has little to do with it. If someone is the kind of person that doesn't respect their property, their disc collection will likely be full of scratched, or unclean discs.
In the case of GameStop, it's probably more likely for a disc to be damaged from shipping than it is from staff use, so I don't really see it being a problem. And besides, you could always return it if it's not in top condition.
