You seem to see this as a major system change, something not dare
implemented 'on the fly'.  It takes 60 seconds and you're done, with
zero downside, zero worries.

There are high security environments that deactivate and clear swap
files with dd at each logoff, as well as dropping all caches, then
reactivate the swap file.  Swap files are not fragile.
