"Why must every security module implement every security hook?"
My understanding from talking to the LSM folks is that they don't want new access control points to slip in without module authors being aware of them. Security-related programming requires a lot of attention to detail; the "you will implement every hook" rule is a way of forcing that attention, even when new details show up.
