Sure, and what do you propose gets done if that's the case? I don't
control my server's configuration, nor would I want to. If I'm working
on securing and updating my server, I'll not have time to write code.
Best to let someone else do it and program like your code is public.
Relying on the idea that no one can see your code unless the server is
mis-configured is false laziness. (From the Larry Wall's 3 virtues of a
good programmer. I know, this isn't a Perl newsgroup.)
