Unzip utility choice decision

[Dangling Pointer]

If my race-condition usecase is hard to reproduce (since it requires you to spawn unzip as a child process in multiple threads simultaneously), see http://www.unix.com/man-page/freebsd/1/unzip/ vs. http://www.unix.com/man-page/linux/1/unzip/ for the "at-the-glance HUGE difference". Mind you, mine is not the only usecase which requires install overhead of "unzip from ports".

Is it? This is exactly what I have asked in first post: What is the point of having another unzip utility with lesser implementation and options, when we already have one. Is it because of license differences? Yes/No (preferably in a non-sarcastic manner..)
I am not sure about the answer, that is why I am asking.
If the license is "not" the issue (since other Unices are using the ORIGINAL unzip utility OOTB), then FreeBSD team should consider adapting to the same for cent percent conformity. Otherwise this question will get its due answer and I would vouch for having it renamed to something like unzip2, so consumers know unzip2 (which comes pre-installed) and unzip (which can be installed by issuing `pkg install unzip`) are two different utilities, with different authors, different licenses and different set of options.
