NetBSD is developped very aggressively, so they get a lot of features but they
are not always packaged in a way which is easy to consume by end users. Yeah,
FDE support is present butif you need to install a FDE system you will need to
do all the manual work yourself.

OpenBSD is pretty much a system designed by the developers for their own use.
Development is slower but stuff is much more likely to work from the get go
since stuff is designed to go into production directly (even if just on some
developer's server). This is the reason why OPenBSD's sandboxing framework was
applied to most of the system as soon as it was developped. THEY CREATED IT
 because they wanted to use it, therefore they ensured it was ready for use.

FreeBSD is prety much a BSD Licensed Linux distribution :-) It caters to
corporate use and aims at being compatible with mainstream stuff even if that
stuff is not very BSDy.
