Hmmm.

Firstly, while I do understand your reason for being taciturn, the fact remains that proof not presented is no proof at all for the purposes of supporting a publicly stated conclusion.

More importantly, though, is the fact that security by obscurity is no security. Hiding known vulnerabilities merely means that the vulnerable will have no opportunity to avoid the inevitable exploitations of such.
