No, this reasoning doesn't convince me because it's still "but what if". Like when people keep on telling we just have to travel the stars to planet B and it's possible because maybe we'll pretty soon discover FTL.

I do agree. Even if I knew the NSA was after me and I knew how to secure my laptop with custom Libreboot and other things I strongly believe the laptop should not be used to discuss matters or store data related to activities that got the agency on my back. I will do an humane error and compromise myself before they need to use strong tech against my laptop.
