It would be cool but that’s a big ask.  Cryptography is a difficult thing.  We 
might think it’s good and then all the sudden some smart intern in Bell Labs 
comes up with a system that renders it useless.  (AKA what happened to Clipper) 
 Or you have other systems developed by school children in Ireland that the NSA 
can’t crack.  You just never know.  I think Tim the executive he is probably 
believed his phone was reasonably secure.  But you’re talking about a very real 
adversary with very real skills in this case.  Its not like Scott in his home 
lab is trying to crack the phone, a company spun up by an intelligence agency 
was involved here with very deep pockets and many resources.  Even 
theoretically brute force attacks work if you through enough resources at them.
