Good direction, but it doesn't completely solve the problem. For example, there are plenty of FOSS projects out there that make ludicrous use of resources and Electrum, or that open up random ports for no reason. At it's heart this is a design problem seperate from FOSS, although most open source projects are way more aware of it than many companies.

The comment was a bit hard to follow, but the point you're making is that open source software is flawed?
Yes, it is flawed, all software is. Software is also never finished. The good thing about open source is, you know what you're getting. If you don't like it, fix it, or pay someone to fix it, or don't use it.
