Meanwhile mathematicians working on cryptography: the universe will die before you get even 10% chance of cracking encryption.

Security by obscurity is no security.

No. Security through obscurity is bad security, but it's still an additional layer. And since there's literally no way to 100% ensure that a machine is being controlled by a human, there's literally no other way except saying "fuck it" and not doing any security at all.
