ILS critical area when the tower is closed?

Well, if it's only a problem when an aircraft is on the ILS and it's
below 800/2, and given that ATC isn't going to release an IFR
departure if an aircraft is on the ILS, then it doesn't appear to be a
problem.
I am familiar with at least one airport that has a Runup area and Hold
Short line inside the ILS critical area. As such, it would seem that the
above statement is inaccurate, as a plane that has not been released could
mistakenly travel past the ILS hold line and create a disruption for an
landing plane.
