If it is biased, it is biased against the code and not the person(s).

If you compare at NetBSD, OpenBSD and FreeBSD, you will find a quite
visible difference in the architectural attitude the projects take
to various problems.

The short summary is that NetBSD focuses a lot on portability,
OpenBSD on security and FreeBSD on scalability and usability.

The area where the architectural mindset is most different 
is probably security, closely followed by system management.

These differences are a good thing.

But it also means, that what may seem architecturally sound in one
project, is not going to fly in another.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
