If they do one of those, it will be obvious it happened, because people can at least reverse engineer iOS and see that it’s different.

If they add some new hashes I presume that would be harder to spot and isn’t going to be advertised

Software vulnerabilities can go undetected for years, why would this necessarily be any different?

the hashes are also shipped with every device and can be inspected.

A few bytes changed in a binary blob that would enable a backdoor would be almost impossible to detect.
