This is very strange.

without any reason.

Maybe the mods really hate the MCU?

This is getting a little out of hand. "A back door that's only for the Good Guys" is not a fundamental impossibility of computer science, it's SSH. Already most of the devices you own can only be upgraded by someone in possession of the correct key. In any case, we should not use technical impossibility as an argument for why something should not be done, in case someone figures out how to do it.

If the good guys can get to it, the bad guys can also get to it.

Instead of weakening the wall the regime could insist that every secure network dial/tunnel out to them instead.
