The product being designed in 1995 was very different from today. Many of these trade offs result in much lower risk vulnerabilities in 1995 when you don’t have virtualization or hardware shared with anyone with a credit card.

I lack the technical expertise to honestly critique the architecture. My assumption is that the folks behind the design of some of the more advanced technology on the planet aren’t morons or seeking to defraud the market.

All of the noise here is about significant vulnerabilities that haven’t been exploited in public. It is a serious defect, but not the end of the world.
