> Apple said, "hmmm, it would be easier to buy this person than to hire him."

Those two things sound the same to me. The guy was hired. What are you saying here?

> There is no one-person fix to secure enclave or any of Apple's other problems

Nobody said he's going to work on that.

> Apple's problems, such as they are, are systemic and cultural. Apple cannot buy its way into better cloud services or better Siri, or better security, and certainly not with the purchase of a such a small company.

You seem to know a lot about Apple's culture. Do you have some evidence to support your claims?
