I think they're like industrial automation systems, people building them have been pretty isolated from most of the software world since before computer security was a big thing, so they haven't picked up the paranoia-but-in-a-good-way the rest of us have had to, and now they're not so isolated anymore and making the mistakes the rest of the world learned not to make in the 90s because they're only just starting to have to worry.
