They are also great for programming one off personal projects that frankly, don't have the use scale that needs rigerous security oversight. Especially since like, if you did it yourself, you probably were not sanitizing the inputs (etc) anyway. You were slapping down some Python code and moving on.

Like, I don't care if my script to convert Wordpress exports to Markdown files crashes if you feed it a JPEG. I am the only one using it, for this data manipulation task.
