You're also falling into the trap of believing that because it _can_
happen, it has to happen (Murphy's Law).  It punishes the many for the
sins of the few and is a very poor foundation for progress.

Plan 9 has a good balance of cost of security against eventual real
protection and forces you to re-evaluate the accepted paradigms.  That
is sufficient reason to explore Plan 9, if not to adopt it wholesale.
