  That is assuming the investigating party has time and knowledge to
place the keylogger. But maybe the investigating party already seized
the computer, maybe not expecting to find encryption software in it. And
at that point is too late to place a keylogger.

  Besides, torture is just a possibility, the scenario Robert mentioned
is nasty enough, even if it didn't involve anything illegal.

  We are not saying it is bad plausibly deniability, it is just you need
to consider if that can cause troubles to you.
