Last time I checked, it was unanimous that *you* are the only one raising and
trying to support your point.
If you only wanted to check if Martin Schulze did brag about something without
the proper knowledge and consent of the security team, you have your answer
(*no*) from some people from that very team.
If you wanted an answer from the security aware community, as I said,
everybody that bothered to answer disagrees with each and every of your
points.

They can surely be proud of having accomplished a great feat, according to (at
*least*) everyone that bothered to give you any kind of answer. It's not
about just one number, it's about the work it takes to make it. And it surely
isn't small, as the calculation of packages*months indicated, and basically
every other point I've seen given so far.
I think now is a good time to say "I'm sorry", but no one can force you to it.
People can only killfile you instead.
Oh, and before I forget:

You said from your carefully picked numbers, that Debian "score" is "worse",
even though that means nothing really, according to the replies that message
got.
