It's not a terrible problem, but it gives attackers a brief window of opportunity to harm your computer every time they tweak their code (http://www.engadget.com/2011/11/18/devilrobber-now-improved-still-nasty-malware-threat/). If a PC hasn't nabbed the latest update to its protection suite, it's vulnerable -- but it doesn't have to be that way. Researchers are using deep learning algorithms (http://www.engadget.com/tag/deeplearning/) that can spot new malicious code naturally, without database updates.

In general, you are right. Antiviruses can't provide us with full protection but they can decrease the ability to lose some important data. But after I've read more (https://www.m2sys.com/blog/guest-blog-posts/data-leakage-of-homeworkers-how-to-reduce-risks/) about Data leakage in such articles as Data Leakage of Homeworkers: How to Reduce Risks I have found that using antiviruses is a good idea and we should not exclude them from the daily-used software. But, I'll probably learn what you have proposed. I think it makes sence.
