Okay, how about:
The iterations of Linux distros have some major bugs in them.
It's more accurate, and much more general :)
However, as you point out, at least with Linux, not only can be do
something about it, but we can expect a fix within a reasonable
amount of time (well, unless that fix comes with a new Debian
release, which averages once ever 2.5 years whether you want one or
not :)

FAI *could* be distro-agnostic, it just needs a little work to make
it work with RPM instead of dpkg and apt-get. Though, since apt
supposedly works with rpm now, it might not even take that much work?
