I'm quite confident that lack of popularity is not an issue that needs 
to fixed via compromising quality. That may even be counterproductive if 
people start noticing NetBSD because of news about slop-driven bugs.

Depending on the needs of some users, stability would be preferable to 
newer features. Specially if the newer features are known to be made 
without quality in mind.

I'm afraid that these LLMs are made with the oposite direction in mind. 
These vendors want to be monopolies or oligopolies.

Ask yourself sincerely if you could handle a complex security 
vulnerability report on VMM acceleration in QEMU, even if Anthropic 
raises its prices to the roof or if they shutdown their services.
After all, it's a newer company with no projection to become profitable 
soon, so both scenarios are plausible.
