What is the attack Vector that this solution prevent ?

Am I missing something obvious ?

Will it prevent Google from being able to have a Root access to the VM?

From my understanding it does not seem to protect from Google. If they are still able to have a Root Access to the VM it does not matter if the memory is encrypted or not.

The only thing that I see, is in case of a spectre/meltdown vulnerabilty where the isolation of the RAM fails...
