You're arguing semantics, you are on massive copium if you think that automation is useful to anyone. Go ahead and set up cryptographic attestation (or just try and interface with a TPM ffs) for your apps on Hetzner to decrypt customer data and see how impossible it is.

It's useful to a lot of people, not everyone has the same requirements. I'm running SecureBoot and LUKS encryption on my Laptop. If there's a TPM2 interface in whatever you can use the same thing. Add an immutable Linux distro and Kubernetes and you'll cover pretty many use cases. Not everyone has the same requirements, $BIGCLOUD makes things easier, but you also pay top dollar for it.

Sorry but what kind of wubble wobble talk is this. Hardly anyone needs the stuff you refer to.
Everyone needs it, you've just lied to yourself enough that you can talk yourself out of setting it up for your own apps. It's easy and free if you're in the Cloud, and nearly impossible on-premise to do yourself (i.e. why most VPS providers don't do it).
