You're still forgetting something
Despite the fact that market share is low, Macs are being increasingly targeted, according to the article. It isn't actually safer than Windows, and all OSes have some security vulnerability (even new ones claiming not to). Your only real defense is to be smart and informed about what you do with your computer, whether it be a Mac, PC, or anything else. Believing yourself to be safer or "safer" because you use a particular machine or OS is the worst mistake you can make.
