The reason I prefer a sterile mix is the issue of bugs. My compost pile is more of a cooler pile, not alway hot. Bugs will lay eggs and they will hatch. I agree if you don't plant your precious seed it should be fine. I lost a lot rare seed just by having compost in the room, had other rookie issues but my room was full of all different kinds of insects due to overwintering of peppers I had just spread compost on and kept them in the same room.
