>1)	Linux has ELF.

   Linux often wishes they didn't.

>2)	FreeBSD does not.
>3)	ELF is desirable

   ELF is a bloated abomination that has numerous architectural problems and
is good at making things slower.

>4)	Linux is doing something right that FreeBSD isn't.

   Yeah, they are better at marketing than we are. They've also been around
