If you keep your keys in hexadecimal or base64 rather than binary, then the information content is maintained but is spread across a greater amount of data. This easily defeats the method. If you *really* want to reduce the average entropy, you can use a full byte '0' or '1' for each bit. or two bytes, or three... ad infinitum.
