Alas that doesn't affect the issue. Running software directly from
the network is bad because it is a process that invites users to give
up control.
Who wrote the program makes no difference, not for this.
Where the program comes from makes no difference.
Suppose I wrote the program and people fetch it from gnu.org:
that makes no difference. It is still bad for people to
adopt a practice that gives them less control.
So we won't lead people in that direction.
