Yeah, you're right. We cannot meaningfully "protect" `any`/`object`. So what remains:

1. Audit of existing `any`/`object`/`[AllowShared]` entry points to see if they do anything problematic.
2. Do we want to split `[AllowShared]` into a "safe" and "unsafe" variant?
   1. If not, assuming we keep the existing processing model, do we want to rename it to indicate the danger more clearly?
