100% this in the short term, but in the long term workarounds will become harder to find. Have a look at iOS jailbreak history.

I just hope they don’t kill functionality which matters for other meaningful purposes, like deep learning.

There’s not money to be earned by jailbreaking iOS that increases in value the harder it is to jailbreak.

Yes, there is currently a ~$1m public bounty, probably more if you know where to look privately. You’d have to check your ethics at the door in both cases, but they do exist.
