Does idevicebackup/idevicerestore not work anymore?

But agreed, there's no technical reason why the phone can't just accept normal USB-connected storage and store a file in there (in whatever proprietary/encrypted format it wants, but at least the _storage_ is standards-compliant).

It seems to be actively maintained, so I would assume it still works:

The backup part definitely works, I haven't tried the restore part.
