Oh, I guess anyone can say something like "Four years without a remote
hole in the default install!" on the internet, where anyone is free to
prove them wrong, and get away with it?  Assuming it is "rubbish", as

If anyone who reads the posts I made looks at them with an objective
outlook, they will see that my message is clearly stated.

Starting services by default is a bad idea.
