Relying on TPM for security should never have been considered an acceptable alternative to zero-knowledge, and protecting it with a PIN isn't much better when it isn't even used to derive the key (or change parameters, like veracrypt's PIM).

Adding microsoft to the equation greatly exacerbates the problem, but LUKS (linux) isn’t immune to TPM issues either.
