You assume that a vendor patches a vulnerability once they learn about it. In my experience, this is not true. Sometimes it's easy to explain (product or vendor ceased to exist), sometimes it's not (some cross-site scripting issues I'm trying to straighten out; minor bugs to you perhaps, but huge media exposure because of their visibility and reproducibility--think FDIV bug).
