There have been silly bugs found in firewalls, etc., so your point is moot. All software has bugs, even the security software.

Less software is also less functionality, which people don't like. Also, AV is essential nowadays.

AV offers 0 functionality to the user. Your assumption that it's essential is not a fact: I disagree

HUH?! Nonsense. AV protects the user from malware which is everywhere these days.
-
The vast majority of infected machines I see either have no AV, or it has its license expired,
-
or it is some free or default crap like Microsoft's.

if insecurely dev'd AV is "won't fix" until a crisis or made redundant I hope latter comes 1st
-
No AV dev is reacting with "won't fix" to security vulnerabilities!
-
you say its"just the way it is", I.e. secure dev is not priority; so will not fix proactively
