Fair assumption.
Assuming no attackers and you're only running trusted code, I still maintain the environment is a poor place to keep secrets. Devs adding `{ meta: process.env }` to logs. Instrumentation/reporting libraries dumping the process (and the env) for crash reports. Trust that subprocesses + dependencies inheriting your environment are taking equal care to avoid these issues, too.
