Ouch. While these certainly are embarrasing, they're presumably rather easily fixable, in the sense that those fixes are unlikely to break anything.
Most of IE's holes, on the other hand, seem to be due to insecure integration with other OS components, semi-intentionally-permeable security domain borders, et al. These are a wholly different class of problems.

No.
The moral of the story is that we need to be humbler and fix our browser of choice.
