As stated in the documentation, it provides no security at all, since:

key is stored along with encrypted documents
Paperless provides transparent access to encrypted documents
Plain text information is stored in the database, including complete document contents, which contains all sensitive information this encryption was supposed to protect.

Removing this feature will decrease the code complexity in many places.
