> If a judge or policeman orders you to hand over your password, you can plausibly say that you don’t actually know it

Surely for this system to help in allowing you to plausibly say that, you'd have to reference this system (or equivalent) and demonstrate that it is indeed used for the authentication the police want access to. And in that case, surely the police could just say "in that case, please authenticate for us"?
