Well, your over-exposure to Windows is showing.
Linux uses ELF libraries, and ELF libraries can be wherever the dynamic loader is told to look for them.

Where the Amazon system libraries (in the normal system image places) and an additional set of HardFloat system libraries (in 'user storage') are run concurrently.
