The reality is that users do not update addons. So the admin has to do it, which is a pain
and good luck with getting paid!
Yes, the core of wordpress is pretty secure (though way too slow).
But that's like saying that guns don't kill people: the bullets that users put in
them are the problem.

This is possibly a good alternative, but it's just another way to paper over the

Wordpress is not safe. It should not be used.
A little narrow sighted, Wordpress is extremely secure and as a core platform it is
proactively maintained to what I see has a high standard.
Of course there may be issues with some plugins but those are secondary choices to
Wordpress itself.
Arguably the insecurity you are referring to is that of the system administrator for not
maintaining the local system, if the platform isn't patched then by the same count
debain isn't secure.
