FreeBSD gains a lot of subtle benefits around consistency and completeness from being self-hosting. Not the least being a comprehensive and steadily improving CI system that actually tests what is being released. There is a clear distinction between base and ports so you always know where to send bug-reports or queries. Documentation is shipped with the system so you don't wind up having to search the web for documentation and find it's for a later version than the one you have. The BSD License means you can keep your commercial secrets legally no matter what you do to or with it. -- Steve O'Hara-Smith <steve@sohara.org>
