I’ve made the effort to secure mine and am aware of how the trusted protection module works with keys, Fedora’s Anaconda system, the shim, etc. I’ve seen where some here have mentioned they do not care or enable secure boot. Out of open minded curiosity for questioning my biases, I would like to know if there is anything I’ve overlooked or never heard of. Are you hashing and reflashing with a CH341/Rπ/etc, or is there some other strategy like super serious network isolation?
You have to turn off Secure Boot to enable hibernation, and I value hibernation enough to do so.
This is patently false. Secure boot and hibernation are not mutually exclusive.
While I believe you, I haven’t been able to enable hibernation with it on.
It’s a kernel build config. Debian for one ships with support disabled due to security concerns.
So I’d have to rebuild the kernel, not just provide a kernel argument? That’s definitely not a step I’m ready for.
Correct
Not mutually exclusive, but it’s highly probable that if you’re running a mainstream distro, the default kernel is in lockdown mode, preventing hibernation while secure boot is enabled.

I believe if your swap partition is on an encrypted LVM, you can still hibernate with kernel lockdown enabled.
This is my setup on debian. Works without any issues.
