They _do_ do that anyway for iCloud. The E2EE support was inherently better, as it significantly reduced the decrypted content exposure to Apple. The uproar over the feature and Apple’s relenting on the implementation resulted in no E2EE as the default. Allegedly advanced data protection does do E2EE for iCloud Photos though. I can understand the good intentions playing out poorly and being ripe for abuse.
