Security is a wrong argument. You can have dynamic loading and locked source folders and disabled LD_PRELOAD.
At the opposite, remember that each statically loaded exe would have to constantly be updated/recompiled for all the libraries updates that they use or could let a lot of security holes opened for a long time.
