This topic is obviously "a little" off-topic, but I find some contributions (like yours) relevant for understanding adoption dynamics (or not) of proposed security mechanisms on the Internet (RPKI, route filtering in general, DNSSEC etc.). In general the regulatory environment in the Internet is quite different from that of the financial sector. But I guess credit-card security trade-offs are still made mostly by private actors. (Maybe they sometimes discuss BGP security on their mailing lists :-) -- Simon.
