Define "we".  As I'm not a core developer for FreeBSD, nor anyone in a
position of official representation of either the OS development project
or the Foundation, my statements in the article should not be taken as
necessarily indicative of anyone's opinions but my own.

The claim about the "sexy" bits of PC-BSD is based on my experience with
tarted-up GUIs and "feature-rich" software.  It is intended as a
generalization rather than a categorical statement of absolute truth.

All stuffy pedantry of mine aside, though, if you want to expand on your
concerns, I'd be happy to read about them.
