The first problem, is the hypothesis is wrong.

No conclusions can be reached, by counting the CVE.

It's because the CVE step is an intermediate one. It
does not measure the value of the ecosystem to the users.

It's how many users are tipped over or exploited that counts.
And no data for that, is available. Merely marketing
summaries, intended to sell AV kits. Yards and yards of FUD.

The Software Quality Institute used to hand out ratings
to companies, for their defects per KLOC. What's amazing,
is the defect rate between a "good" company and a "bad"
company is only a factor of three. I was shocked! It
means there is shit everywhere, and there is basically
nothing you can do about it.

Since the defectivity is proportional to KLOC (defects
per thousand lines of code), about all you can do in an
OS, is cut down the lines of source, the number of SVCHOST,
the unnecessary subsystems, and so on. No OS today, takes
such an approach seriously, because such an OS would be
"disadvantaged in the marketplace". Nobody would buy it
because of the spartan nature of the product.

CVEs are proportional to the amount of money spent
to generate them. Offer a reward for bugs ? Get more CVE.
What's that ? The CVE only happen when a Black Hat is
in the room ? Nature of the game. Not all CVEs are
worth the paper they are printed on. Even the ratings
are (somewhat) suspect, as to whether something is
an "8" or a "10".

It's just not a productive use of anyones time, to be
using a CVE for this purpose. A CVE is a communications
tool, for communication between professionals.

Let's take as an example, the Temple OS. How many
CVEs have been filed for the Temple OS ? Why, zero.
Ipsofacto, the OS is perfection! It must be better
than all of the others! Of course, no one is being
paid to find bugs in it.
