In the case of Apple, couldn't you reset the phone, sign in to a backup iCloud account, and then repeat the process with your real account once you're clear? Not a fast process, but most people have GBs of personal data so nothing would be quick anyways.

In theory that could work (although I have never owned an iPhone) but usually there is stuff that doesn't backup (specially settings for apps, logged accounts, etc.) and it becomes tedious to have to sign in manually.

Ideally we should be able to just snapshot everything and then restore from that state. Kind of like EC2 or Digital Ocean

It's impossible to log in with just a password, you need to okay it on an Apple device. If ICE has that Apple device and a person who knows the password they can do the same.

Also they'll detain you for having a suspicious burner phone and interrogate you about your social media etc.
