This is so short sighted I can't believe you are serious and not trolling. Every precaution has its limitations but why give the attackers a free meal? Encrypted data protects from simple theft or loss of the device so a common thief won't leak the data.

You implied that encryption is optional whereas this shouldn't even be a discussion.
