is this sarcasm

Yes, those security measures are automated antivirus solutions that apparently fail to flag encoded GDScript. I doubt platforms have anything more than automated scans for user uploaded mods for Godot games.

Correction: should be: "NON self-coded executables".

Also, second major issue is that unsafe encrypted code is circumventing anti-virus scans, which would require antivirus software to be able to unpack and scan godot files (low probablility at the moment) or just flag every game as a threat (quite probable solution).

Games - yes. But if you download a game from Steam there's a legal entity behind that that is responsible. But mods? Proper scripting languages have sanitized API's, sandboxing and script validation.

Did you just say there's malware that exploits your software, and that's why it's important that other people be more careful?

Ok. So, I just don't have to pirate paid plugins from suspicious pages. Got it!

actually this makes me wonder how to include mod support for a game without allowing for malicious mods, since modders can use OS.execute() at any time

hi transgender, Im Elena

This is very important to the lore just wait until season 4

Moral of the story, don't steal games. 😁 (mostly kidding, but also serious)
