Generally agree but I don't think Secure Boot falls in this category unless the keys are locked in firmware (and in that case the firmware is the problem). Root passwords aren't evil either just because they can be withdrawn from the user.

Secure Boot is often conflated with Measured Boot.

Measured Boot is essential for any attestation based scheme.
