Even if you don't use them to transact, doesn't the fact that you have a full node increase the network security by itself? (as it's validating/sharing)?

The fact that the Fed prints dollars is common knowledge. The relevant question is how to prevent it. It cannot be prevented if wallets trust some anonymous party to validate for them, and cannot be prevented if some non-anonymous party does so.
Besides, what about relaying, shunning, S2X and UASF? 
They don't have to trust"some anonymous party", they only have to trust the results of an extremely reliable network, 100s of jurisdictionally diverse nodes any one of which can yell on the internet if they catch any of the rest of them accepting invalid txs.

There is no way to validate people yelling in the Internet.
