Each customer's needs are assessed on a one-on-one basis. Truth is, the people reading this post (with the exclusion of yourself, it appears) are not interested in every technical aspect of what is secured and optimized. I too have a vast ammount of experience, and while it may seem basic what is listed, the service itself is not. Some may require more, and some less -- it is based on the need of the server owner.
BSD -- security by obscurity, sounds great, but, how long does that last? Also, you did not mention any aspect of optimization of Apache, MySQL, etc. -- even on a dual xeon, unoptimized services can run like a three legged dog.
A service does not automatically restart itself when it freezes or stops responding. If they did, there would be no need for third party applications that monitor them.
Thank you for your time.
