You speak about the design of TPMs. I speak about the actual reality of mediocre and sometimes defective hardware and the even worse and often defective software implementations (often already on the bios/UEFI level) used in conjunction.

Sadly that's not even close to the same thing, in parts because a certain "PoS company" plays a huge part in it.

Or to stick with your picture: Your argument is as sane as supporting any vaccine, no matter its effectiveness, because vaccines in general are a very good thing. Fortunately there are national health offices evaluating effectiveness and benefit/drawback comparisons for vaccines. Unfortunately the "same" evaluation for hardware is done by big tech under the premise of how to make the most money.

If you dislike TPMs on face value it’s because you also don’t understand the science behind how it works

No, i don't "dislike" anything. I simply talked about practical reality instead of theoretic ideal.

HSMs are a key component of modern enterprise security.

I feel like you would not believe the real amount of shitty enterprise security were the pinnacle of TPM use is requiring active Secure Boot (with pre-installed MS keys of course) and managing their Office365 licensing...
