Not to dismiss the very real problem you raise, but that only has to be solved once per hardware configuration. This is why digital piracy is so successful - you only need the efforts of some very talented individuals to solve that particular problem and you’re good. As hard as that may be, it’s still simpler than manufacturing and assembling hardware where accuracy to 1/1000" in a dust-feee environment is a requirement.
