Even if we trust that without the LED being on, the camera is never on, it does actually provide little consolation. Unless Apple has covered every single scenario, where any program trying to access the camera, can't do so without the user intervention.

People accidentally leave their laptop lids open, and what if the app they trusted earlier isn't so anymore and turns on the camera, streaming the content before it.

Unless Apple has a solution to prevent all these, they shouldn't be giving such advise.
