I'd love to respond to this, but your comment "... that explicitly provides no security guarantees when someone has physical access to it, .." is too abstract for me. I'll make a few guesses.
- Is the device hackable? AFAIK not at this moment. The firmware is minimal. It is a relatively new device, so maybe I am not fully informed.
- Is the device stealable/swappable? Yes. However, it isn't possible/easy to access the internal device-secret (UDS) therefore, swapping it out leads to different secret for the program, cascading into the identity, therefore authentication would fail. (Also, if you steal it, then it's gone. :-P)
- There are protections against opening it up. I'm not an expert on this, so I cannot reliably reproduce from memory the ways it is resistant to this. However, it already means your destroying hardware in the process.
