I would expect each time they got "no secret key" they would spend a
couple of seconds to fire back an email of boilerplate text saying
they couldn't decrypt and containing the correct key.

Any security measure has overhead. It takes longer to open a door if
you have to unlock it first, and then there's the overhead of having
to look after a key or remember an access code. (-:

I was just questioning whether it is really a problem. If it is, and
the effort to solve it is less than the effort to just deal with it,
then it should be solved.
