Of course. For me (if I'd be in that business) just the presence of a
system offering plausible deniability capabilities would be enough to
simply assume they are used and thus continue pressing out keys of the
suspect :)

However, not offering such capabilities is only one strategy in the game
- and not a very cooperative one: it exposes the users of systems that
*do* offer such capabilities. Thus, the other way around is more
cooperative: if all major products would support plausible deniability,
the fact that some suspect uses one specific system loses this
indication.
