Without further ado, the following was found:
Issue: formatting, copy → sync?
"Create a pseudo-terminal for the session. The independent terminal provides "
"better security as the user does not share a terminal with the original "
"session. This can be used to avoid TIOCSTI ioctl terminal injection and "
"other security attacks against terminal file descriptors. The entire session "
"can also be moved to the background (e.g., B<runuser --pty -u username \\(em "
"command &>). If the pseudo-terminal is enabled, then B<runuser> works as a "
"proxy between the sessions (copy stdin and stdout)."
