There are both objective and subjective elements here, and much as you would like to, you cannot rule out the subjective side of it. Nobody's arguing with the objective merits of MorphOS, but some people prefer the feel of OS4 which is why you shouldn't try to rule it out for new users. And, if you're going to stick purely to objective reasoning, as someone else asked, why are you using MorphOS when you could just use Windows? Objectively speaking, Windows kicks the living daylights out of MorphOS and OS4 combined on pretty much every metric you listed.

To bring up the obligatory car analogy, lots of people think I'm nuts for driving the car I drive. There are so many cars I could've bought which would have lower tax, lower emissions, better fuel economy, better reliability, better acceleration and top speed and so on. But they don't feel like my car. You get waaay too wound up on this subject, and whether you mean it or not, it looks like you're making people out to be idiots for picking OS4 over MorphOS, and carrying on the same argument doesn't help you one bit.
