"I don't know, in the 4.x days I worked for a company that built and deployed very stable commercial grade products on the 4.x release."

It is very appropriate that you remember the 4.x days like that since that is the last time there was a long term, stable target for FreeBSD development (and investment). Remember, the 4 branch went to 4.11.

It is 4.x that I identified in my original mailing list post (2012) as the time, after which, I thought FreeBSD began having problems with focus and longevity.



Funnily enough, 4.x is when jkh went to Apple.
