Why is it necessary?

It's amazing how many times this idea is disabused but people will
shamelessly stand up and make these vague and mysterious claims, like
used car salesmen...

   We have a plan so secret, so subtle, that not even the enemy will
   notice it when it's fully in place! In fact, it will have
   absolutely no effect on the enemy it is such a brilliantly subtle
   plan! Moo-hah-hah.

What a fraudulent load of crap.
