Inspection of model weights is a thing. But that thing is out of my wheelhouse so I do the next best which is to judge the output.
It is absolutely not a thing in any practical sense that relates to detecting post-trained backdoors, no.
Or provide a source showing how to do this (and not just a circuit paper showing which activations light up with the word dog)

The fact that you're not informed does not place a burden on me.

This is all just a sub-class of supply chain attacks.
You don't have to be able to explain every aspect of a model to be able to inspect for undesirable traits.
