Everybody who is listening to what you say and countering with, "sure that's possible in an extreme bad faith scenario" is falling victim to a black and white thinking fallacy.

If it's possible in the extreme, it's possible in a fine grained gradient between the two extremes. The danger isn't the infinite barrier, which I believe you posed as a thought experiment. The danger is death by a thousand cuts of new ideas that are so important that they could make the relevant concerns irrelevant.
