Yes, I guess my point was that in this case it's trivially avoidable. Enabling these features in the ESP32 is really easy and doesn't have any significant downsides AFAIK, I don't understand why LIFX didn't. It's far from unhackable but I think enabling flash encryption and locking the JTAG and flash read would be perfectly acceptable security-wise.
