I don't disagree but "it's not possible for xxx to be used securely" is a long way from "it's cumbersome and tedious to use xxx securely"

If using it securely requires you to never ever forget, even once, I'd agree with GP.

But "it's not possible for xxx to be used securely" is a better premise if it deflects people who can't do it correctly.

Lying to people because you think you're smarter than them is bad policy.
