You meant to say "threat". This is what threat model is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threat_model
Nobody here discounts governments as a threat.
As to the "proper threat model", you can't construct one since your attacker is essentially unbounded.
For example, any large government could easily obtain 51% of hash power and then only accept transactions from "certified services".
