    you could do it really safely at only like 5km/hr, exclude all pokemon catching, create a long delay between pokestop spins, use walking heuristics

    with all of that there's almost no chance you get banned

    I beg to differ. Any access to unofficial 3rd party API ie. Bots poses risk to your account.
    Especially with the recent server side API update.

    Short answer, yes there is risk of getting banned for login into 3rd party API no matter how humanized your config is, or to farm pokestops only.

    Good enough answers given. Any third party program being used has a risk of banning you.
