I can't speak to SpaceX's decision, but in FCC rulings, they have proposed encryption when commanding vehicles, not for telemetry or tracking comms (satellites, specifically, although I'd assume similar guidance for vehicles, with the only command you're going to send to the vehicle would be boom for range safety).

For historical purposes, range safety on SpaceX vehicles has been autonomous and onboard since 2017. Vehicles emit telemetry, but do not receive commands.
