Really ?  I think you'll find that there are quite a number of people,
aside from myself, who think that the "1 exploit in X years" is on one
end of it as misleading and the other end, a lie, excluding this current
openssh problem.

But that statement is as much market fodder as much anything else.

As for the "way better", I'll take your comment as a completely
subjective comment as the way in which you measure software
quality may not be the same as the way I (or others) measure it.

I could go on and cite examples but I don't think that's necessary.

Some people, like you, believe openbsd/openssh is the best software
that exists today.  Others don't and I'm sure there are examples and
counter examples to prove either side.  My only advice is try not to
take criticism of it personally.
