Same here. There are plenty of legitimate safe use of these functions, including in performance critical sections. Beside the so-called 'safe' memcpy, for example, is only 'safe' if it is being audited anyway against abuse ( memcpy(d,s,count) -> memcpy_s(d, count, s, count)) so the _s create a false sens of security...
