That’s one check. There are other system checks to make the client side hash collision meaningless.

Do you understand that anyone can take absolutely legal porn and make it match CSAM hash? And no one except NCMEC can know the difference because they all only compare hashes and not actual images.
And whoever going to check images for Apple will see that yeah, there is porn on picture. Flag it. Then you'll have unlimited amount of time to explain to FBI why some porn on your device match CSAM hash.
The mere accusal itself of possessing CSAM can be life ruining if it gets to that stage. More importantly, a collision will effectively allow warrantless searches, at least of the collided images.
