Noone's ever going to build a secure device if people are fed such snake oil and given the impression that they have "some" or "enough" security if they use it.



Security works in layers, and unfortunately consumers want the wrong layer first.


The point is, they get 0 security and we should not pretend that they are getting more. We are ripping off consumers if we do, what we think they want is a poor excuse, unless we're just in it for the money/fame/other benefits.
