Just hiding it doesn't look like good "security" if the code itself is flawed. At the end of the day the code has to run regardless of its file extension. There could be some advantages to this. But it does not prevent someone (who is not a script-kiddie or some kind of automated bot) from exploiting the flaws in the code.
Just a thought.
Just leaving this comment to prevent a beginner from using this as a legitimate security measure (assuming they read documentation). Cool feature though.
