Uh, your sarcasms hurt my delicate soul. :-) I don't usually come here to whine. I've always kept my systems as default as possible. I've never written any article about OpenBSD. Obviously it's not about me and *that's the bad news*. Whether or not you're right about users in general, there are more than one OS out there with long tradition and experience in developing with the assumption users are a bunch of irresponsible idiots. And they count with a stronger infrastructure than yours. It's not clever to compete with those monsters using their same strategy.
