However when you say:

“within the next decade or so we’ll see the introduction of new system architecture models — models that are highly restrictive and run using a “default closed” paradigm…”, after saying we are using shoddy materials…thats a long time to bail out a leaking boat.

If a technology prevents any vulnerability from being exploited, then risk is zero. What if a technology could do that now, for existing O/Ss, instead of waiting a decade or so and re-designing everything from the ground up? What would its value be?
