Yes, that's true, especially when the scripts are open and available for scrutiny. However, and I tread lightly here, some people who use the "user-friendly" versions of Linux are barely above Window$ users in familiarity with the OS. I still caution against trusting any operating system.
Back in the day I was the lead analyst-programmer for a military Tiger Team that went through a whole bunch of military systems ranging from that old Honeywell to a variety of "microcomputers such as the PDP-8 series. Certainly times and technology have both changed, but the philosophy is the same -- spoof the users, obfuscate then do damage.
