This topic came up because someone asked, "Hey, how can I do x security
thing", and got a response of, "That's dumb".

This entire topic should never have come up, because people should be able to
ask questions on how to do any random thing they want and unless it's
something harmful to others, get a useful response or positive conversation.

and to actually answer your question, it's because people feel as though
your actions are hypocritical, rather than it being about security or "the
paranoid party line". They're aiming at the perceived hypocrisy, not the
security.
