The point though is that you can't afford minor losses here and there, because it's a war of attrition. Firearm lobby knows that the opposition's strategy is to just chip away at 2A rights slowly over the decades. Therefore, they can't afford to allow minor gun control victories here and there, or else a century later they are out of business and their supporters have no 2A rights anymore.
Same with this. You can't allow minor anti-encryption victories here and there chipping away at privacy/mathematical rights or your great grandkids won't have those freedoms.
