This is simply magical thinking.

Knowing the details of an open source tool a company uses does not magically give you a backdoor.

By that logic, merely knowing coinbase uses the open source go language for some things would let you steal all their crypto, and I assure you if it was that simple their coffers would be empty.

btw I use linux and firefox and have an unencrypted bitcoin wallet.dat on my computer, feel free to prove me wrong.
