and the price of everything will go up as well to pay for it. Your $2 bag of flour becomes $4 because of security costs

this is sad. its like tragedy of the commons. you could have lived in a village without thieves and you dont need a lock. but as soon as there is one thieves, everyone in the village now need to have locks. you could have all your servers without security in a village with social trust but the moment you have evil actor everyone must now have security expenses that do not add functionality just to fight that single pathogen.
so the expensea are related not to amount of adversaries but to amount of things you need to protect. because its enough to have one bad guy to inpose expenses on whole village.
