Laws aren't a black box that only lawyers and judges are allowed to discuss and interpret. The difference you're making doesn't make sense especially when you look at criminal law and the concept of having a jury. The fact that a significant criminal trial involving Signal, Cellebrite, and the CFAA would call in an expert witness also is worth remembering. The kind of expert witness that would be needed to break down and explain the "hack" and who also would visit this thread to read or comment. The situation hasn't been tested in court and no helpful precedent exists, otherwise it wouldn't really be something that needs a discussion.
