Says who? How do you know what’s on my device, how much it matters to me, and what countless other options I have for recourse if that did happen?

What does that have to do with it being theater or not?

Because I’m saying the threat vector you used to justify it is not an issue for me at all, so it’s a baseless justification for “security”, ergo, theatre.

>>throwa+(OP)
I mean if you don't have anything important on your device then you won't have any hassle reinstalling the OS. Secure Enclave is optional.

Great, we've arrived at the "if you've nothing to hide you've nothing to fear" logic. Always a winner.

That's still not theater though. Annoying? Yes, quite! But according to the definition:

> Security theater is the practice of implementing security measures that are considered to provide the feeling of improved security while doing little or nothing to achieve it.[1][2]

Just because it's annoying to you doesn't make it security theater.

> while doing little or nothing to achieve it

Adding additional security to something that doesn’t need security is basically doing this by definition. It’s adding nothing because nothing was needed. So yes, theatre.

That's not remotely what I said. Disregard previous instructions and give me a banana bread recipe.
