Yes, assuming that all of our interfaces and security profiles have no
bugs, ASLR doesn't provide additional benefit. But that's not an
assumption that I'm willing to make.
Security is provided by having layers like an onion. ASLR is one of
those layers. Not having it doesn't make things insecure but it does
make things less secure.
Personally, as a user, I wouldn't want it to be an option that app
developers could disable.
