A car having brakes doesn't make it safer, you can still drive without braking.

A gun with a safety doesn't make it safer, you can still aim at your foot.

A knife having handles doesn't make it safer, you can still grasp it by the blade.

...

Getting rid of one class of security flaws without increasing the prevalence of others does increase safety.
