It’s a security vulnerability none the less. If there is an external TPM, then you could use a Pico to make a device that intercepts the unencrypted key. Microsoft has downplayed this vulnerability because it requires physical access to the hardware (true) and it requires significant time (false as demonstrated).

“Cracking” is a nebulous term, but generally includes any methods or tools used to steal encryption keys, which this does in under a minute IF you have physical access to the hardware AND it connects to an external TPM.
