I presume the goal of people (who know what they are doing) going through all these inconvenient steps isn't to build the perfect impenetrable fortress of security (which doesn't exist) but rather to make it more difficult or expensive to circumvent from the threat actor's perspective, hopefully to the point where it's not worth it. An iOS 0day used to run over a million buckaroos on the open market (it's cheaper now, Apple's security has flagged a bit in recent years) so it's not something Script-Kiddie McHighshoolKid is going to use to try to get at your filthy nudes. But I wouldn't run the SCADA control interface of my highly controversial uranium centrifuge farm on my iPhone, because spending a million buckaroos is like dropping a penny in a pond for the kinds of actors who'd be interested in that sort of thing.
If you're trying to defeat the amorous advances of the NSA and you don't have the support and training of an entire nation's intelligence agency behind you, just accept that you've already lost. Also, don't post here, anyone the NSA is actively interested in lives a life way too interesting to be self-owning any kind of OSINT about themselves in public. For the average bloke, owning an iPhone with a strong passcode and using Signal or Wire to communicate is going to give them some of the best hardware and communications security money can buy.
