As opposed to the “security” of closed source software? Where severe vulns are left in as long as they aren't publicized because it would take too much development time to justify fixing and the company doesn't make money fixing vulns - it makes money creating new features. And since it isn't a security-related product any lapses in security are an "Oopsy woopsy we screwed up" and everyone moves on with their lives?

Even companies that are supposed to get security right have constant screw ups that are only fixed when someone goes poking around where they probably shouldn't and thankfully happens to not be malicious.
