While I concur that Secure Boot is a problem, I think that:

A safe Windows would be so inconvenient to use that it would be a complete failure in the market place.

does not actually say anything useful about Windows, since I'm not aware of a "safe" OS that is actually convenient enough to not be a "complete market failure".

(MacOS X might be safer, but it's certainly not safe.)
