As a long time Linux and BSD user I agree with you. You still have to enable basic things that are not turned on by default - i.e. stack protection. A lot of this is enabled by default on OpenBSD.

I went through the K&R C book writing out the exercises and notes in a notebook. I had limited access to a computer at the college I was attending.

I think learning to code this way can be a huge aid in conceptualizing certain CS / programming topics.
