Nothing guarantees nothing. Life is ephemeral and we're all going to die.

Yet, we can say that code review by a third party is better for trust of that code, than no code review by a third party.

"Nothing guarantees" may have been strong. but "the set of attack vectors and their relative efficacy increases " doesn't roll off the tongue quite as nicely.

Replace "code review" with automated static analysis and a 5 minute run through of the app and you are spot on.

Unless "The Singularity" (and subsequent mind-uploading) actually pans out.
