You are right but on the other hand... what would happen to most system-/network-administrators if MS Software would suddenly be secure - or if there would be no kid anymore writing worms and viruses against Windows-Software? I am sure at least 25% of the administrators would be without work, and the rest would have to be ready for earning essentially less money than now. The same would happen to freelancers as well. Just something to think about.

***  So, according to this, the only thing that system admin's do is act as an arm of Security?  They don't do performance monitoring, capacity planning, coding of some type, deal with system/network issues, take care of the infrastructure...
