I get it, preventing local privilege escalation on *NIX is hard, and I appreciate OpenBSD's focus and stance on security, v.s. say Linus's more laid-back attitude. And having arguably fewest of them is an achievement, even if it's not zero. Let's focus on making OpenBSD better and not belittling other's shortcomings.
