I think it does make a difference when it comes to vulnerabilities and especially infiltrators. You're doing these things as a hobby. Outside of your real work. If it becomes too big for you it's hard to find help (exact case here). How do you pass on the torch when you want to retire?

I think money can help alleviate pressure from both your points. No one says that money makes them honest. But if it's a full time job you are less likely to just quickly look and say lgtm. You make fewer mistakes when you're less stress or tired. It's harder to be corrupted because people would rather a stable job and career than a one time payout. Pay also makes it easier to trace.

Again, it's not a 100% solution. Nothing will be! But it's hard to argue that this wouldn't alleviate significant pressure.
