If this is the case, what do you think about deprecating intrusive and
using "not safe" instead?

I was trying to think of a reason not to have the safe XOR intrusive
rule, but I couldn't think of any scripts that would be considered both
safe and intrusive, or both not safe and not intrusive.
What about a scale. Some scripts are safe (known to not break anything), some scripts are intrusive (possible instability, DoS, etc), and some scripts are in between. Or is that too much?
