1. Desktop which also functions as a server.

2. Centralized documentation, board of directors versus benevolent dictator for life, faster network stack, fewer GNU tools in the base install, ports tree, license.

3. ZFS, Linuxulator, documentation, community, familiarity.

4. Hardware support, especially power management (ACPI, SpeedStep, etc.) on laptops that are not ThinkPads or Dell Latitudes. Wayland.

5. The FreeBSD handbook.

The biggest problem with the BSDs are not the operating systems themselves, but the network effect surrounding GNU/Linux causing developers to completely overlook them, going on to create bodies of code that are not easy to port or in some cases impossible (Systemd, Wayland).

Wayland does work on FreeBSD. Just not with every DE yet. But it's certainly not impossible :)

Systemd might also be possible but not at all desirable imo.
