I don't agree with your point.  Every debian install I've ever done, 
will have the same core packages as every other debian machine on the 
planet.  An exploit that works on one will work on all.

Rigorous testing and timely updating of packages is an essential 
underpinning to maintaining a secure system.

Mart.
