I didn't really have any opinions beyond what I already said -- that
reading the code and looking and the changes, it seemed to me that the
purpose of unsafep.el was to list functions that are absolutely 100%
"safe" to use (i.e., no very noticeable side effects).

So the logic seems to be "kinda like side-effect-free, but from a user
point of view".  And neither message nor play-sound-file fit those
criteria.
