I wonder how this argument holds up if the government were to make deniable encryption illegal. If it is possible to determine that you have encrypted data, and it is possible to verify the accuracy of your testimony, there should be no concern about compelling false testimony. Which is different from compelling testimony that cannot be verified, at least in the sense that you know that only the people being held in contempt could possibly be innocent. Maybe the tradeoffs that should.be made in this case are different.
