Remove tinyMCE from admin and replace with textarea

I have created a plugin wherein I have a custom post type. I am using post_content for some simple text. I do not need to offer any fancy editing or insertion of data for this field, so I looked for a way to remove the buttons from the tinyMCE editor.

I never found a very good solution so I removed the editor from the custom post type supports in the register function.

'supports' = array('title','revisions','thumbnail'),

Then to create an area for the content to go I simply echo a textarea in the back end form with the name and id attribute as "content".

tr
    th scope="row"
        label for="content"Review body/label
    /th
    td
        textarea style="height: 300px; width: 100%" autocomplete="off" cols="40" name="content" id="content"' . $post-post_content . '/textarea
    /td
/tr

This works exactly as I want, and is pretty simple.

The question is, am I losing sanitation or skipping security measures by doing this?

No need to reinvent the wheel - put your editor support back and tweak the settings:

function wpse_199918_wp_editor_settings( $settings, $editor_id ) {
    if ( $editor_id === 'content' && get_current_screen()->post_type === 'custom_post_type' ) {
        $settings['tinymce']   = false;
        $settings['quicktags'] = false;
        $settings['media_buttons'] = false;
    }

    return $settings;
}

add_filter( 'wp_editor_settings', 'wpse_199918_wp_editor_settings', 10, 2 );
