Keep to the fundamentals. TPM is all about trust. So long as I'm using
it to enhance my trust that the machines under my control are actually
under my control I deem it a good thing. If it is to be used to let
somebody ELSE trust my machines in ways I can't control I'm probably not
going to put up with it and disable the chip. Just that simple, just
look at who is trusting who and the question of whether it is good
clears up instantly.

And yes, putting the thing in hardware does enhance security in ways
software alone simply can't.
