Your 'felt conflict' may result when installing OpenBSD to a
stand-alone workstation, because root and user might be the
same person:
<user> blames <root> for not configuring the box correctly and
<root>, who doesn't know better and can't blame <user>, complains
to OpenBSD for 'not being secure by default'.
Hence, it's rather a conflict between subject roles than a problem
of OpenBSD.
