Yet at the same time, I can go to the 7/11 and open my wallet and use whatever form of payment I want, secure enclave be damned, and the sky doesn't fall. I can go on the internet on my macbook and use any payment form I want on any service, secure enclave be damned, and the sky doesn't fall. I would think everyone on this website is tired by the nanny state that Apple has created on iOS. If the argument is security that's fine, just let us power users who know what we are doing toggle this off and actually use our hardware to do what we'd like with it, short of waiting with baited breath for a teenager in eastern europe to give us a jailbreak that lasts for a week before patching.

I’d always thought “power users” toggled this type of stuff off by switching to Lineage or similar and having full control.

You can't install lineage OS on an iPhone. The answer to gaining control shouldn't be to buy different hardware when you have perfectly good hardware capable of also offering that control.
