Sure, they can keep beating you or keep you locked up, but you know that they will anyway because they'll never be satisfied with the amount you've given them. There could always be more. So there is no point giving up all of them. What that means for your mental state and the likelihood that you will give them all up, I don't know.

On the other hand, if you don't use this, they'll just beat you or keep you locked up until you've given the key to all the volumes they can see.

Which type is better depends on your situation. You can't just say it's pointless because they know what the purpose of this encryption software is.

I do make the claim it's pointless, as well as all other crypto software that claims to provide "plausible deniability" for the reason I stated.

The best mental state you can have is being able to tell all the truth and that still doesn't help an adversary to recover the data. That means keeping your key separate from your gray matter.
