Everyone understands the deal with Apple hardware. No one ever thought you could pull out the SSD and stick it in another device. No one is surprised by this reality. No one planned around doing that unless they were profoundly ignorant.
If the T2 failed (it is now integrated right into the M1, so any failure of the mainboard), the data is gone. Everyone should know that by now.
So he went in with his scheme regardless of that. And his work had so little value that if his laptop were stolen, if a single rank of the storage failed, etc, he'd be in the same situation.
He lost data because he was careless in the same foolish way that we read about so often. But people get to beat their ridiculous anti-Apple drums, so here we are.
"OS X does board-locked enclave-managed storage because iOS does board-locked enclave-managed storage"
This is boorish noise. Apple does it because it provides strong storage encryption while imposing no performance or usability problems. You like something better - good for you. I don't. I have zero issues with this reality.
"I lost all my data!" stories are ridiculous nonsense 99% of the time, and this isn't in the 1%.
