Hi Rhea,
same as Johannes "I am in no way able to officially answer but maybe I
can give some thoughts and rhetoric questions":
* QGIS is not designed to handle such security restrictions, it is not
its purpose
* the best way, IMHO, is to limit its network accesses by using
dedicated security software as selinux for linux or advanced firewall
configuration for windows
* the best to discuss these features is "to create QGIS Enhancement
Proposals at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues.;
Regards.

Hi Rhea,
I am in no way able to officially answer but maybe I can give some
thoughts and rhetoric questions:
To me those improvements sound like good ideas. I am not sure how far
you could lock down Python extensibility considering the existing API.
And I am not sure if you are aware of the many ways that a QGIS
environment might use network calls, e.g. a tool like Proj might
download grids from the internet in some cases, GDAL might try to
fetch schemas specified in local files, etc. Sandboxing the system
from the outside is probably much easier and secure.
Are those 40 extensions existing extensions? Are you aware that you
can strip out the official repository and use your own instead?
It would probably be best to create QGIS Enhancement Proposals at
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues.
And it would be good to proof commitment to maintaining the new
features in some way or enter the sustaining membership program with
significant, recurring contributions so that other developers paid by
the QGIS project can maintain them.
Cheers, Hannes
