I see your point, but I view it through a different lens. In painting, the mastery of 'blank space' (negative space) is as vital as the brushstrokes themselves. For a project like OpenBSD, the discipline to not implement a feature—unless it can be done perfectly and securely—is a rare form of restraint. In an industry obsessed with feature bloat, this 'lack' isn't a deficiency; it’s an aesthetic and philosophical statement.

What OpenBSD falls short in, however, are some vital features.
Virtualization or Containers, for example. These are essential agents of isolation and portability that OpenBSD utterly lacks.
