Is it necessary to set all files with "bin" in its path to 777?

NDK with 755 seems to still work?

/var/lib/waydroid/overlay/system/bin/ndk_translation_program_runner_binfmt_misc_arm64
/var/lib/waydroid/overlay/system/bin/ndk_translation_program_runner_binfmt_misc
/var/lib/waydroid/overlay/system/bin/arm64/linker64
/var/lib/waydroid/overlay/system/bin/arm64/app_process64
/var/lib/waydroid/overlay/system/bin/arm/linker
/var/lib/waydroid/overlay/system/bin/arm/app_process

I guess there's a reason for this? But 777 files just feel scary...
