Keep to the fundamentals. TPM is all about trust. So long as I'm using it to enhance my trust that the machines under my control are actually under my control I deem it a good thing. If it is to be used to let somebody ELSE trust my machines in ways I can't control I'm probably not going to put up with it and disable the chip. Just that simple, just look at who is trusting who and the question of whether it is good clears up instantly. And yes, putting the thing in hardware does enhance security in ways software alone simply can't.
