I think to a significant extent, Debian maintainers do aim to make Debian
"secure by default", to the extent possible (i.e. based on what is
expected to be a "normal/typical" use of the system).
Admittedly, "dummies" is not really the target audience for Debian, so
maybe the defaults aren't quite up to *that* task.
