This is one of the few ways SDKs can enable e.g. diagnostic modes without extra integration work by the app developer, but as is often the case there's a fine line between "convenient hack" and "gaping security hole".

Obviously this sort of thing needs super-explicit user opt-in and needs to be secured sufficiently that it can't leak private data, and it's possible/likely that a lot of SDKs aren't great about this.
