However, I've seen that Theo de Raadt doesn't like the idea because it
would ruin the  amazing experience of using a window  manager that has
virtually remained unchanged for 25 years.

I use FVWM (from  base, not ports) because it doesn't get  in my way and
is  largely  hassle-free. It  just  works.  Once customized  it's  quite
functional.  Is it  an  amazing experience?  Who can  say?  Does any  WM
provide an amazing experience?

Thanks.

In order to determine how many people use the version of FVWM included in the base system, we would need to poll the OpenBSD user base. I bet it's a minority, which is not good. What's the point of including window managers in the base system if almost no one uses them? I doubt many people would use OpenBSD's default window manager if it were changed to CTWM. However, at least CTWM is still being maintained [1].
