Topic starter mentioned, that assumption that everybody has online
connection is completely wrong! As far as I understand, it was his main
objection -- they have a lot of offline computers at work (something
related to Security Theatre by DHS, but who am I to judge them?).
And you again says about "pkg install rcs" which needs internet
connection!

I was answering Alfred Perlsteins claim that FreeBSD is "a chore to
install packages into". I agree that it won't work without an internet
connection (or a local package repository), but that's hardly a
problem limited to FreeBSD.
Anyway, it seems likely that we'll get OpenRCS in base, hopefully
making everyone happy.
Only a few years ago you could take a dvd or memstick of FreeBSD and
have 1000s of packages to choose from during your install. That is
broken now?
Bummer.
