Years ago I read about a simplified formula to answer whether I trust someone, and in turn, something: Trustworthiness = Competence + Character. I think a bit of research, as the other R-help posters have so comprehensively covered in their replies to your original question, will convince you or anyone else you need to convince that the R-core team and the core product of R itself rates at the top of the scale on both character and competence. Packages of course will not be as consistently high in the trustworthiness continuum, but rest assured there are several that are high, which again, you can verify yourself for your and/or your audience's needs.
