The AN0M phone created by the FBI was probably the most successful luxury phone we will ever see, where people paid thousands of dollars for them, and used them both practically and as a status symbol for their unique lifestyle use cases. They disinhibited themselves on the AN0M platform because it gave them a sense of freedom, safety, exclusivity, and privilege - everything a luxury product aspires to do. XOR or even Apple could learn a thing or two from them. But I'd also argue security features are what you need when you don't have power, because you in effect psychologically inferiorize yourself to both your threat model and your security provider, so that's why apple plays down their security narrative in their luxury brand as well. Security as a feature makes most experiences kind of lame in anything it touches, so I don't think it's a very sound basis for a luxury product.
