    This attitude is, to me, very security through obscurity. I did consider your idea, but on the whole can’t be bothered 🤷

      Can you elaborate on how it’s security through obscurity? I’m just saying what the devs have said. It does make sense though that if you provide root access that it could be easier for malicious devices to gain root access and therefore take more harmful actions

        Utter hogwash. If I don’t have a device, a hacker can’t gain access to it. That’s security through obscurity. Make things stronger, not evasive
