This is probably fine for evading local cops.

I'll also note that anyone plugging this into a forensics machine is going to have a bit of a dilemma: Perform write tests, or not? Because if they probe it with password:... attempts to check on timing leakage, that's potentially damaging evidence.

You do not do any writes in a forensics scenario. Especially if you want to make it stand in court.

You have to always keep a clean hashed copy, and then work on copies from there.

You can't make a "clean hashed copy" of hardware.
