Comment:

 Like blockflare has mentioned, we've already studied the tradeoff between
 usability and security here:
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/UX/OrfoxSecuritySlider.
 Specifically, we tell them how some features will break as security
 increases, and label the options "safe, safer, safest" to indicate
 security levels.
