You're right that iPhone is an interesting case, but even with iPhone we could still make a lot of progress. To be clear, I do not have a lot of sympathy for Apple's arguments around secure enclave. As far as I'm concerned, right-to-repair is a tangible issue that effects nearly everyone, and having the government install a separate touch id button is a largely theoretical risk for most people. But, even the iPhone has parts that aren't effected by secure enclave -- so if it takes this argument off the table, I'm willing to let it go. We still have Apple blocking replacement parts as counterfeits when they enter the country; and we still have a bunch of diagnostic information, specs, and tools that are only available to authorized technicians. It's also worth noting that Error 53 wasn't forcing consumers to make a choice between the fingerprint reader and a 3rd-party screen replacement -- it was "bricking" the phone. That Apple was willing to roll that back and change their design so that Secure Enclave only disabled fingerprints, says to me that even Apple has admitted that secure enclave doesn't need to monitor every single part of their phones to keep consumers safe.
