Some of us kept using OpenBSD (longer than they should’ve?) because of that and a few other related decisions.

So who is everyone, in your meaning?

You can't read English like if it was a declarative logical language. It is obviously an hyperbole to say "everyone". It means "a lot of people". So why they didn't say "a lot of people"? Language uses hyperboles to make a point stronger.
Some people use hyperbole to make a point, and some people see this as a red flag, and causes them to lose trust.
