We're talking about reducing the number of blackmailable situations not eliminating them.

You're arguing we shouldn't put up, "don't feed the bears signs" because some people are going to do it anyway.

No. I'm arguing that as long as we have a functioning society, blackmail-able situations are virtually unlimited.
