I don't know about NetBSD, but one of OpenBSD's objectives is to have defaults
good enough that no tweaking is necessary at a low level. Which means they
strive to have services you can install and forget. For example, the default
httpd launches chrooted and with privilege separation and sandboxing enabled by
default, and the only thing you are expected to do is to configure your domains
and TLS certs and such. You can break out of the defaults if needed, but if you
have to do it is considered a bit of a failure on their part.
