There are only two choices, strong security or weak security.
It's impossible to have security that's strong against the bad guys and weak against the good guys.
It's impossible to precisely define who the good guys are and to guarantee that they will always be good.
It's impossible to stop the bad guys from corrupting or threatening the good guys.

And those in power by definition need their power, hence, everyone else is only permitted weak security.

What matters is managing and adjusting the relative weaknesses, to maintain the pecking order.

There will always be back doors.

For me the visualization of direct collapse black hole formation is that there's still a huge mass of gas falling in, at the boundary of the new black hole nearly dense enough to direct collapse itself. The blowback would compress the inflow over the density edge and you get a whole cloud of black holes.
