Because software is hard to get right and it's written by people who make up companies from 1 person to tens of thousands, still just people trying to put food on the tables for their families.
Linux is outside the concept of a market, it's open and free unless you want paid support. You can't imply "use" by market numbers when Linux or Open Source is at the center of the discussion.

Exactly thank-you!
Reverence for "God" comes from an abject failure in critical thinking on that subject.
Ignorance is bliss; the blind find comfort in the dark.
