IMHO (ok not very humble) any ware on crypto, weather it's in the past or modern approaches to it is stupid af and I want to give a metaphorical kick to anyone pushing it.
What many people which push it don't seem to realize is that such approaches undermine national and personal security and any benefits gained for it are likely outstripped by the long term drawbacks.
Drawbacks like making it easier for foreign actors to enact industry espionage or find ways to influence or blackmail people.
The idea of a government accessible backdoor which can't be accessed by foreign powers is just ridiculous. Especially if the access doesn't require physical access to the devices in question.
