Re:Don't get political. (Score 1)

There is no real relationship between whether a piece of software has the source available, whether it is easy to use, and whether it is reliable. There is no sane reason to try to lump all these things together.

Yet it seems to me that that's an answer to the question. (That is, it's something you could say to someone who says "floss is difficult to use/buggy".)

As for the question being deserving of ridicule, I disagree. There are people who say those things, and people who would like to convince them otherwise so they'll hop on the floss bandwagon as well, but don't know what to say.
