I totally agree there’s a very low probability of leak there. There’s still a (meta) reason to do stuff like this though.
If you have a high value target (like building an AI), you need insane paranoid security. Means you need to train the mindset of patching everything you possibly can not because you think it’s unsafe but, you know, just because. E.g. you could tell the difference between good and bad sysadmin just by looking at his own PC. A good sysadmin will have every single drive truecrypted, no matter the inconvenience. This is an opportunity to train the mind into the job.
