"unsafe" seems quite different from the "dangerously [...]" phrasal template. I don't think it's a stretch to suppose it was inspired by React. Still waiting for this one to catch on:
React.__SECRET_INTERNALS_DO_NOT_USE_OR_YOU_WILL_BE_FIRED
This is sometimes exposed in front end browser code and I had an actual (non technical) end user email our support team last month asking if it was something they should be concerned about! God knows how they found it, I suspect everyone is now an AI-enabled expert at these things…
Oh I've stumbled upon it myself while coding. You can ctrl/cmd-click into any React type and it will take you to its explicit source definition. I'm not sure if it's still the case but they used to have all of the types organized into a single file. Since I was the go-to TypeScript person at one job I had I made sure to familiarize myself with every type (less than you'd expect)
