I think that Jeremy meant that this is only a useful occupation if you
expect to eventually reach a point where you expect that there aren't
any security flaws left.  Jeremy & I both doubt that Python will ever
reach that level, meaning that the whole exercise of fixing security
flaws is a waste of time (if you know you *can't* make it safe, don't
waste time trying).
