"if everything is X, nothing is X" - in my brain, that is usually "if everything is critical, nothing is critical". Is there a good explainer/history for this phrase? Trying to explain it to some folks who are trying to evaluate open source packages and keep coming back to "we have identified a serious problem with open source packages!" "how many packages have it?" "about 99%" "then it isn't a serious problem, or at least you can't treat it as one".
