A security feature that can be circumvented in many non-secure-boot cases is still a footgun protector. And there are already plenty of those. I'm not surprised the LKML thread pushed back as hard as it did. If that's his reason for digging in his heels, then suspicion that there could be more at play doesn't seem all that unwarranted.
