These types of views/takes honestly are not productive. Security is never 100%. If location-based blocking defeats 98% of the low hanging fruit threats, it is most likely worth it. You can then filter down your more costly countermeasures to the 2% of the remaining pie.

Similar reality exists regarding security through obscurity. Is it perfect? No; nothing is. But if the cost to even understand the system in play is very expensive, that alone is a deterrent to low-effort / drive-by attackers.
