I think we have different estimates of how hard it is to snoop data that's been scrambled.
If you're assuming a human will be looking for these, or just doing keyword searches or the like, you don't need much protection. But you could get "not much protection" with ROT-13, and clearly you don't think that's enough protection. I'm trying to convince you that if you don't think ROT-13 is enough, neither is the key selection algorithm you've described here.
