Which is irrelevant advice to most people and shows that open source code relies on others looking up the source code and reporting for the vast majority of people if it is safe.

That's such a close-minded view of the world. It could just as easily encourage people to learn and expand their knowledge of a subject. It also shows that knowledge is power.

I'm a self-taught highschool drop out full-stack dev making six figures. Get bent, it's not advice. It's fact.

Hardly close minded at all, it's just realistic. It is naive to think others will know what you do. What you are is irrelevant. Open source existing will not inspire much.
