To take it
further, it's like saying Microsoft should release no more
Microsoft Updates for Windows because virus makers will lose
interest in
making viruses.
Although I enjoy your extended metaphors, I never said people should
stop trying anything new. You're defending against attacks I'm not
making.
[But to reply to your metaphor: I certainly hope you're not intending
to compare Microsoft software favorably to Wikipedia contributions.
I'd rather, if we were to use this analogy, strive for something like
Linux, BSD, or OS X where massive gaping security flaws aren't
inherent in the system.]
Massive gaping security flaws aren't inherent in Wikipedia in regards
to preventing vandalism? That's news to me.
