Missing the point a little bit on 4.
Proving you're you is great if you're, say, Canonical distributing package updates to Ubuntu, where the adversary is malware distributors.
But where your adversary is eg: the FBI, then it promotes a false sense of assurance, because it's actually really easy to spoof someone if you can arrest them and force them to give the key password.
