I tend to agree, at least partially.

There are, to me, good reasons for using OpenBSD that have little to do with security. (I don't use OpenBSD as my primary OS, but that is a different story.)

What is most important to me is that the system is relatively simple as far as configuration/administration goes, and that it has very good documentation. It seems rather spartan at first, but on the other hand that means there is no hidden magic, which I have come to appreciate.

Also, the general approach OpenBSD takes towards security does not only improve security, it tends to result in software that is more reliable in general. One does not need to be paranoid to appreciate all that.
