Because the EXE file has a somewhat unusual structure. Note that most detections are heuristic - i.e., they find something bizarre in the file, not known malware. Try compiling a larger program, or make a non-debug executable and the detections are likely to stop.

Yeah, it looks like only
@cylanceinc detects the file as unsafe if it's not a debug build. https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/02f2be8c8c5da2e5553467d016d42211a998a625bc3f90b7fd963244335321ef/detection …

Likely due to compilation with debug flags enabled and nothing to code sign or prove authenticity (having done a little research into this area)

So therefore Windows should delete the file from underneath me?

This is mostly due to bad heuristics and ML over-generalizing in regards to the brevity and lack of imports observed with most malware.
