“Apple offers a product that they do not hold the ability to “unlock” because the user alone knows how to unlock it.”

Not only does Apple have the ability, so does NSA. And anyone else with supercompute capability.

That is simply not true. There are encryption algorithms that with well chosen keys are essentially unbreakable, requiring supercomputer time exceeding the age of the universe by orders of magnitude by brute force attack, and if Apple didn’t cache the key, then it’s quite secure, even from William Barr and his band of techno monkeys at the NSA. Otherwise he wouldn’t be grovelling on tv like a little girl.
