Oh, that's a shame. The slide in the referenced tweet says, "advanced debug capabilities", so I'd assumed that's what it meant. I wonder what else that could mean?

The ability to attach a debugger to the kernel. No, really, that’s “advanced” for an iOS device, because normally you don’t get to do anything even close to that. You can’t even debug userspace processes that aren’t ones that you put there yourself (as a developer writing apps) on normal iPhones.
