Any encryption scheme with a backdoor is insecure, by definition.

  Not if you change the security definition. Which they will. All they are asking for is some form of key escrow; which can (and has) been given a reasonable security definition. The problem is that secure implementations of key escrow are much harder; and (given the amount of use the escrowed key will get), certainly going to be broken in practice.
