Robustness? HOW? Please explain how bolting on non-related features increase
robustness?

It doesn't. It's just another thing to break.

The philosophy of design in the POSIX world is to Do One Thing Well. GnuPG's
"One Thing" is to be an encryption tool.  It's not to be a Security Suite Swiss
Army Knife.

Bad Idea and not likely to happen.
