Um... no, you *hope* /tmp is sticky; I have access to at least one
computer where this is not the case. Is that system misconfigured?
Probably. (Forget /tmp, the default umask on said computer is 000.
Secure? I think not.) Nevertheless, IMO we shouldn't rely on systems
being "properly configured" when there is a solution that is safe
regardless.

Disadvantage: Bad Puns [-5]
You constantly utter puns so egregious as to cause mental distress to
anyone hearing them. This can, however, be used to distract enemies.
