I know, and I hate it. I think the only way to fix this would be to support some limited scripting language, but that also sucks for other reasons.

Open source would also help with trust.

I literally have a Rimworld mod that calls an external python script as a feature.

It's a special case, of course said script is not part of the mod package, it has to be installed manually. What it does is allowing generating portraits for characters externally.

I even rewrote the script to use local generation, but the one provided as an example calls an online API.
