I resemble that remark. :-) By that I mean I've often been criticized for

phone is among the most-complicated devices invented by mankind, and its
complexity goes well beyond the "need" of the average user, yet it's also
among the top-selling products of mankind's history.

And you've completely missed the point. I didn't write "anything that adds complexity". I wrote "anything that adds unnecessary complexity". If you maintain good physical security then there is no need to encrypt your devices and backups. Encrypting devices and backups only makes sense if you are unwilling or unable to maintain physical security, but if that's the case then maybe you should think twice about what you store on your easily lost or stolen or seized gadgets.
