It is my understanding that if you comment OUT the bpf line in the kernel
and re-compile, this disables things like nmap and prevents a sniffer from
running on the network * easily * correct?

The reason I put * easily * in there is because I am aware of other ways to
bypass bpf, but I believe disabling would defeat 99% of the script kiddies.
