It is true. Denying trivial truths with the purpose of not giving an inch does not add to one's argument, it weakens it.
Plenty of closed source products will happily backdoor their products on request, without a warrant, if they are confident they will never be found out. That's the point. Not that FOSS source is somehow inviolable to nation-states with virtually infinite resources, many of which sponsor or contribute to the finance of a huge percentage of the development of FOSS themselves.
It's easier to find backdoors in FOSS if you're looking, because you're allowed to look. But somebody has to be looking.
