This is a logical fallacy, that fails to acknowledge the rest of the
possibilities that exist:

  * There's a problem with the hardware parts in question.

  * The hardware vendor is keeping information 'hidden' behind
    restrictive licenses that FreeBSD developers don't have access to.

and so forth...  The world isn't black and white only.

What do the statistics say about problems that are reported and fixed?
