I'd like to stress the point that using the kill switch is no different than physically removing the modem from the device.

Removing your operating system's access to it by deleting parts of it is *less* "secure" than using the kill switch.

Deleting the modem's operating system will (most likely) permanently brick the modem. Your only recourse would be to desolder it and solder in a new one. (You really don't want to do that.)
