It's a classic fallacy of "the old one may be extremely bad, but it's already there, so it's okay, but the new one needs to be perfect against anything any scenario someone can think about, no matter how far fetched". We have this pretty often here in Germany. The requirements for anything digital are so incredibly high compared to the non-digital version we have currently/had before (depending on whether we finally managed to introduce a digital version), it's just sad.

Let me send you that totally secure fax with my totally secure signature drawn by hand. Far more secure than a digital document signed by this scary, newfangled electronic signature, which could have been hacked and is therefore totally insecure.
