I run the real xscreensaver though (I was building it from the source until around this time last year, now I run the one from alpine but I don’t think they’ve done anything weird (I haven’t checked though))

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen what everyone is talking about and it’s bothered me a little too (granted, my machine is configured in such an undiscoverable way that just opening an xterm window is obscure enough to be nearly equivalent to a very short pin, and then you need to know bash. Now that I’m not in college and don’t have anything important that’s probably good enough even without xcreensaver.)
