other than for security where it lose out to OpenBSD and both are way more secure than a typical Linux install. Security goes like this microkernel OSes, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Linux, MacOS, Windows

(I've never really used BSD and I'm a Linux user, so don't came at me Linux users. I'm just stating a fact to uid313.)

Most FreeBSD (Unix) usage is corporate - for example, Netflix uses it. It predates Linux by about a decade, and it's firmly entrenched. Many will tell you it's more stable than Linux - I know that I prefer it - if only more linux apps were compatible I would totally switch.
It costs a lot to migrate to another system, and companies need a compelling reason to switch. And if you work at one of these companies on the 'care and feeding' of Unix servers, you'll want a compatible desktop.
