Doesn't really matter /a or not, it's a ridiculously reductive and extremist position either way.

Security is about tradeoffs, most notably security vs convenience, but also many others.

Anyone who suggests that their personal preferences in tradeoffs are not just universally correct but also the only reasonable position to hold is just silly.

It's extremist but unfortunately also an opinion that seems to be nonsarcastically becoming more popular.
