So you are trying to protect against people who already have a root shell?
Can't they just e.g. run /usr/bin/python and type in some Python code?
Or run /usr/bin/curl and upload all your secret data to their server.

You are correct, it would not be feasible for a general purpose distro,
but for embedded systems and other cases where there is a more tightly
locked-down system.
