So, that doesn't hold true for FreeBSD as well?

Can't really say. OpenBSD explicitly focuses on security, but I can say that if you scratch serious service providers, particularly old-school ones, they're very likely to be running one of the BSDs, not Linux. And the really serious service providers and enterprise users run Solaris (with growing use of illumos).
