The same goes for mounting /tmp and /var noexec. Why do you think there's an option to mount a partition with the noexec parameter?
It's useful for data partitions, but even then mounting read only is more useful.
I think you will find very quickly that mounting either /tmp or /var as read-only is anything but useful. Would you seriously suggest doing this? I am not sure you understand these options.
I'm sure that he meant only for data partitions.
** UPDATE ** Having tried the ~/bin concept, I see that I don't like it, and don't need it. So I scrapped it. Actually, the app works file when run from its own directory (where its support files reside).
