What you are saying, in real world terms, not your Binaryland, is that
if OS A has 2 vulnerabilities that not many people now about, and OS B
has a whole slew of the posted all over the web that they are both
equally insecure.
exactly; they are both insecure, one is not "more insecure" or
"insecurer" - if you make a web app it's either secure or insecure; if
you make an operating system it is secure or insecure. On the flip side
as an OS owner, a single barely known vulnerability is just as much a
worry as 100 well known vulnerabilities.
Or, for another analogy, you're saying that because all cars can either
be sitting still or moving then they are all equally fast.
no, more like your car has a window missing, another car has no locks,
and mine has no door; which is the most insecure?
