Well, modules can be designed to protect my security, or to harm my security (e.g. to enforce DRM). I'm unclear on how "real TPM" functionality helps me. If it helps secure Microsoft, and hurts my security, that's a good reason to not use Windows.

I have not found good docs on what TPM exactly does in Windows 11, but people I trust tell me to distrust it, so I do.

It’s used to store BitLocker (Full Disk Encryption) keys so you don’t have to type a password for the system to boot. If you don’t use BitLocker, it’s not used for much else.

One could conclude that they are requiring TPM so they can eventually turn on BitLocker by default.

This is really stupid. So you can use your hard drive only in the first computer.

If VirtualBox takes the pass though approach, will we be able to migrate Windows 11 VMs between computers?
