I can't imagine that this poorly thought out, knee jerk reaction of an idea would be abused by Goons at all... nope. 
Oh, and LOL at "destructio". Is that like fellatio, but with guns? Feyd's near constant sexual innuendos have never been more apt.

Is 5.0 sec so easy to achieve that literally every ganker has such an alt?
Yep. I can't speak for "literally every ganker", but myself and every ganker (and most of the wardecers) I hang out with has them, yeah. Gotta run locators somehow.

A system like the one proposed here increases the value of "lawful" characters, be they alts or mains. Why is that a problem?
It's not a problem. It's merely pointing out a gaping flaw in your proposal.
That being, that it would have no functional effect besides making things more of a pain in the ass for new players. It has often puzzled me why every "proposal" people come up with to combat the theoretical problem of ganking would almost always have the effect of sharply discouraging new players in some aspect of the game.

New players come in at -10 sec status now? No sane marketeer looking for profit would limit by sec status over 0.0 security, since that eliminates a huge chunk of buyers.
Your entire premise is to allow butthurt indy players to not sell to gankers.
Sec status tags exist. The previously mentioned butthurt indy players are almost certainly aware of that.
The real world result of your proposal would be to restrict it to a sec status that guarantees they sell it to a carebear.

If a new player chooses to wreck his sec status I don't see why he should be exempt from the same consequences older players face.
Unlike me, a new player doesn't have four accounts worth of alts to do his buying and selling. Get it yet?
I already am exempt from the consequences. The new player isn't.

Only a carebear could come up with a "solution" like this.
"Gankers are making it harder to make a profit. Solution? Just stop making a profit at all! Hooray for emotional rabbit groupthink!"

I don't, and I freely admit it.
Although I might start, now that the industry interface is less... what's a good word for what it used to be? Horribad?
