I'm not sure how that rebuts my point? macOS has a much lower number of CVEs than Windows. But there's a lot more to security than CVEs, and my post was about issues that CVEs don't track. BTW Apple marketing isn't what led to my views, they're based on direct experience with the security mechanisms of both operating systems up close and personal.

Well, you know what they say about being too close to something to speak on it objectively. Which in this case means: there's the way these systems were designed to work, and how they actually work toward the end-goal of keeping the systems they secure, secure.

I'll believe that Apple's operating systems are significantly and measurably more secure when they can make it a few years without a maliciously formatted iMessage crashing the kernel. Until then; its arguing minutia. Everyone has security issues. Everyone is taking steps toward improving their security. No one is so far ahead that they're worth white knighting on HackerNews.

More than 75% of Windows CVEs isn't exactly "a much lower number of CVEs", even without considering its actually much lower market share.
