Local scripts are more convenient in some circumstances.

Players can't control anything in non-local scripts.

That's not a particularly good reason to use local scripts.

Any and all client-server communication poses security risks, of course, it's just how minimal.

With FE disabled, anyone with the power of Google and harmful intentions can mess up your place. With FE enabled, it's still possible, but more difficult. With FE on and a keen understanding of the client-server relationship, you can protect your game by NEVER trusting the client (local scripts) and ALWAYS performing double-checks on the server to make sure that anything the client sends isn't bogus.
