So you are OK with having your data suddenly unencrypted at some point in the not-so-distant future?
It's a trade-off, yes, but that doesn't make it useless.

aside the marketing bluff, quantum computing is nowhere near close
Nowhere near close, but getting every day closer. And you should factor in for how long secrets need to last.
Progress to date at using quantum effects to break cryptography has been zero.
Are we guaranteed to approach it at a constant velocity? I personally think it unwise to place my security on that bet.
