We don't need more reasons.  All such systems not only cannot be trusted,

and the only things that have changed in the interim are (a) the
attacker budget has dramatically increased and (b) the cost of
the required technology has decreased.
I believe lobbyists have made more political contributions. The
contributions will likely trump all technical arguments, including
Moore's Law.
