Is everyone ignoring that “holdback” mechanism google is introducing with the idea? Where 5-10% of the traffic behaves as if it did not have attestation enabled, I would like to understand how that does not address the “web DRM” concerns but I can’t find an explanation anywhere

It's very obvious that is disingenuous; they will use that as an excuse to make it palatable while planning to silently turn it off in a couple of years. Clearly it's a "foot in the door" technique similar to how Apple tried (but ultimately backed down) to introduce local scanning of all content on user devices (in the name of CSAM of course - a palatable scenario - which later opens the door for scanning anything a government entity dislikes).
