The TPM hash is not stored anywhere or pre-programmed. It exists solely in the chipset of the TPM. It’s not “trade-able.” It’s completely unreadable, even by the owner.

So, you're saying the people who are smart enough to design a chip with a billion transistors are not smart enough to design in a few thousand more to mirror the TPM into a separate file that only the proper authorities can access, one hidden from the user.

If the TPM were completely inaccessible, it couldn't be accessed by the encryption tools on any level.
