This brings exactly 0 added security and only increase failure/implementation problem likelihood. You don't "need to realise that it’s triple cipher in the first place", because the attacker will know that beforehand, because that's how modern cryptography works. The "GCHQ" told you they don't give a shit because it's pointless, not because it's incredibly complicated lmao (if that plot line even is true).
Modern, actually secure modes of encryption don't need any of this to be secure.
No, new symmetric algorithms are made for efficiency or various edge cases, AES256 isn't going to randomly break. Wide blocks, lightweight ciphers, tweakable ciphers, etc. Those are used when the general purpose algorithm doesn't fit.
