If you're correct that a kernal cannot find an encrypted rootfs, then by
the same token it cannot find an encrypted initrd, either. So, what
have you really gained?

In any event, I think you are incorrect. Here's a runthrough that Pavel
Kogan wrote, and nothing he describes requires an initrd. He _does_
use a RAMdisk to store the keyfile after booting, but that's a different
matter. http://www.pavelkogan.com/2014/05/23/luks-full-disk-encryption/

It's funny how all the new Linux kiddies keep wanting to dismiss what
I've been doing since 1993 on Linux (and since the 1980s on other
*nixes) as a 'special case'. Both funny-haha and funny-peculiar.
