Seems super unlikely that somebody with a HN account is unfamiliar with search engines, doesn't it?

Seems super unlikely that somebody with a HN account can't find docs for defi projects that in most cases have github accounts with available contracts and api docs, doesn't it?

Maybe it's just deceptive

And not to mention that by definition, those DeFi contracts are readable. The actual code, itself. Sure, there might be (and probably are) bugs, and we need auditing tools, the list goes on, but at least it's not a black box.

The compiled binaries, sure. If you peer with the blockchain, collect a block containing the smart contract and extract the binary from it.

At least smart contracts usually don't have that much code, so it's not too much effort to reverse-engineer. But that's not source code.
