please check out how much code MS Teams actually has, before statements like this :)

(it’s more than 30MB of compressed JS)

I didn't want to belittle your work, if you think that was the case. It's still outstanding to find things like that on your own, and a lot of work goes into it. Sorry if I gave the wrong impression.

I have analyzed foreign code bases of similar dimensions in the past myself and found critical bugs. The size doesn't say much, it comes down to identifying the "interesting" bits (like the electronSafeRpc in this case), which can be hard and tedious, but greatly reduces the code you have to look at in detail. My assertion is that if your name is e.g. China then you will not be turned off by that.

that electronSafeIpc API is actually not that interesting and a completely standard way to do things for ElectronJS apps.

No, I do agree - from my perspective C/C++ class bugs are more difficult. Maybe they see this as magic as well.

Still, it was painstaking work and in either case CountryX will easily surpass those difficulties.

30MB of hand-written JS? For what's basically a glorified chat client?

With that much code I'd expect an AI to talk to people so I don't have to.
