> Apple's secure enclave docs also mention memory encryption.

Yes, but that's only within the enclave. Every Mac hardware since T2 has had that, and we don't consider them strong enough to meet the CC bar.

As an example of the difference, CC is designed so that a compromised hypervisor cannot inspect your guest workload. Whereas in Apple's design, they attempt to prove that the hypervisor isn't compromised. Now imagine there's a bug ...

(Not that SGX hasn't had exploitable hardware flaws, but there is a difference here.)
