This carries the same energy as "People will break into your car no matter what, so just leave your doors unlocked."

You say that, but I know someone whose house had their front door kicked in by burglars even though it wasn't even locked.
The energy here is "so don't leave anything valuable in your car".
Unfortunately that is not what they proposed. To stretch the automotive analogy too far, you could say: if you invite a carjacker in, their seatbelt is not going to stop them from carjacking you.
"Avoid shared-kernel attack surfaces" is not an unreasonable proposition in 2026.
