Note that all of these are absolute; relative comparisons (faster than, cheaper than, more secure than, easier to use than, etc.) have no place in promotion of FOSS IMNSHO. In any case, if you manage to push enough people to use a package for absolute, freedom-centric reasons, there will be enough developers jumping on to make the relative comparisons favourable :)
Another way to look at the same points would be to make the FOS software so irresistible that when users flock to it, they get the added benefits of freedom and portability etc.
