I'm not sure the tone is appropriate. This happens at every layer of the stack. Entire ecosystems evolve around hosting software systems from laying the wires between cities to comment hosting services. Really, who better to maintain it than the people who built it? If you were an oracle database customer, wouldn't you outsource your oracle database management to oracle before you'd outsource it to microsoft?

Well, the comment was meant to be taken as tongue-in-cheek, but Wordpress has a notoriously poor track record with security. It's a trade off. There is some software I'll gladly host myself. Wordpress is not one of them.
