I get what you're saying but it would have made more sense had Apple not added the Secure Enclave to newer iPhones. I.e. they tried to make it more secure, so I have to conclude that they had tried their best with the older versions, too.

A simple flow chart or state diagram would show the vulnerability. I'm not saying it was intentional, but I believe the backdoor label can be applied to accidental entrances as well.

The bottom line is that Apple produced a device whose security features could be circumvented.

All security features can be circumvented. Security is not absolute
