Well now I would say that I'm not interested in most keys, and I am interested in figuring out how to mitigate damage from the rest of them. You only need one key to get inside.

99% coverage is not good enough from a security standpoint, not when we can achieve 100%.

Simply, this functionality should be transparent and toggleable.

I think you're confused about what absolutism means. Just because I want 100% coverage when achievable does not mean I am being absolutist.
