The problem is you have to think like a nasty person.
If I can convince you to run groff in unsafe mode on a file I send you, and
it can do things like:
overwrite or create files with your permissions, like:
/var/spool/mail/_MY_LOGIN_ID_
/home/_MY_LOGIN_ID_/bin/_SOME_PERSONAL_COMMAND_
execute arbitrary commands with your permissions using:
.sy command
.pi command
.pso command
