If I was told to put a backdoor in my product and make it plausibly deniable, it probably would look like a vulnerability in a very obscure, rarely used and non-documented function.

Yes, there's no real way to know. But then again, is "our products are full of security vulnerabilities" that better than "our products are full of backdoors"? I think being hacked by a random criminal from Moldova is not much better than being watched by a Chinese Army officer from Beijing. You probably want to avoid both.
