Sorry I meant: only the latter is behind a registration/paywall? (which?)

This was just a side and half-joke actually, I don't really care that much. My more important question is: what are in a nutshell the *technical* differences between today's POSIX and today's Single Unix? Assuming of course these can fit in a nutshell. For instance: is Single Unix just a new name fancy name for what could have been just called POSIX 2018? Or is POSIX is an outdated and significantly smaller subset of Single Unix? Are the exact same players shooting again? Etc.

xtifr seemed to know much more than he shared.

POSIX is a part of SUS.

In fact, current POSIX publication is also done by OpenGroup; e.g. http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/nframe.html is POSIX.1-2017, which is the most important part of SUS Version 4.
