I didn't completely ignore it, I just don't think it is relevant.  If a
virus can "attack" anything in /home/user that is already a much worse
situation.  If something "owns" /bin/ls I've already got worse problems.
The fact that the virus could make it to /home/user (where user UID=0 or
UID=10001) is the problem to solve, not saving the rest of the (already)
sinking ship at that point.

> This is also fact.

Yes, but not one that applies.
