"Trust" in the security sense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_system https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_system You can trust a system by accepting that if it is owned, you are owned. If you don't trust it you instead protect it with a system that you do trust. For example, if you don't trust any x86 system you would not make them face the Internet. You would put them behind a trusted firewall. But you have to decide whether you trust a system or not. If you trust it then you have to believe it when it reports a certain feature is disabled. If you don't trust it to begin with then it doesn't matter if it's disabled or not. Your security shouldn't be relying on it anyway.
