Generally when you're talking about cryptography you don't want to make assumptions that rely on reality working out in the way that's most convenient for you. Presuming that quantum computing can't be any kind of threat is a pretty risky gamble.

The NSA actually seems quite scared of it and wants everyone to move to post-quantum encryption already. Ulterior motives here would imply they have cracks for everything except quantum encryption, which probably isn't the case.
