> But why run it in a VM?

Because you don't execute untrusted code in your machine without containerization/virtualization. Don't you?

The question was asking why it’s untrusted code, not why you run untrusted code in a VM.

There are a lot of open-source tools that we have to trust to get anything done on a daily basis.

Every single day. There's just too much good software out there, and life is too short to be so paranoid.
