> Security is a field related to protecting device-users from malicious actors.

This is one of many aspects of security-- perhaps what Google considers most important on Android, but surely you can imagine some scenarios which we care about which aren't about an end-user getting attacked.

(Indeed, sometimes security is all about protecting infrastructure, assets, or information from device users).

Besides, the third point that you cavalierly dismiss above:

directly relates to even your limited notion of security.
