I haven't gotten a chance to look at it yet, but Lewis Rossmann's comments are usually very helpful for things like this. I don't know what apple is playing at.

From the comment section on YouTube
"Further, the bill has a component that prevents manufacturers from being required to make tools, parts, and documentation available for any component that would disable or override antitheft security measures, which would encompass features like Face ID." Apple isn't giving away the farm. As long as they consider it security-sensitive, they don't have to share it with anyone.
Still can’t edit on mobile yet. :(
