I have cared a lot, even too much about designing secure APIs for Drupal. To create a software which made it easy to write secure custom code and hard to write insecure. I placed this in front of other concerns including developer and user experience. Sounds nice, isn't it? But in truth, I was trying to tend a garden in the nuclear winter. By and large the Internet is so insecure that making it slightly easier to write more secure code is a trifling concern. It is enough that Drupal is not a house of cards of security wise and indeed it is not. Let other concerns win over security in API design. I was wrong. And I am out.
