To beat a dead horse that's already copped a flogging here, if the default install ensured all security patches were installed there would be no need for such an email. Microsoft does do that of course. Which means if the situation were reversed our users would still be vulnerable to WanaCrypt0r by default, whereas Microsoft's users are not. Given that's true, claiming in this instance our users were better off that Microsoft's sounds indefensible to me.
