Yeah, yeah. I used to use this argument a lot, too. But that's like saying: if your harness isn't secure, then why bother with an additional safety net below you? You might as well fall and die..

It's not that obfuscating or encrypting the keystorePass is a fool-proof answer, but that it adds an additional step of complexity in the way of anyone who might crack your system. Stuff happens.
