What advantage do you see to "secure hardware", I'm unaware of any recent Mac security issue that would have been prevented by it. It gives Apple a lot more control over the device but I don't see any advantage to the user.

One advantage I could see would be lowering value for thieves, if it worked out like locked phones that cannot just be wiped and resold.
