I'm in sync with your opinion but speaking from the point of view of a
programmer which use FreeBSD i would like to say that enforcing (or at
least try to) good understanding of issues and good programming practice
is a good thing(TM), so if FreeBSD as an O.S. and as a community try to
enforce me to have good programming attitudes i really would like to
follow that.

FWIW what have made me switched my whole job to FreBSD six years ago was
exactly the good practices enforced in FreeBSD itself.
