Your comment indicates the answer is yes.

Trying to figure out where the gap may be...my guess is the view objections come from "people [who] didn’t read."

The delta is that the “on-device scanning” proposed by the British government and the “on-device scanning” proposed by Apple are very different in meaningful ways.
