I love this implication that there's some valuable body of code out there that gets reviewed, compiled and never executed.

They are talking about executing code at compile time (macros and such). With modern IDEs/editors, just opening the folder may trigger such behavior (when LSP boots and compiles) though some environments warn you.

I know, but the _implication_ is that it's extremely unsafe, I don't buy the implication - code gets executed.
