1. If Mac users aren’t taking advantage of the easiest automated backup system in existence (Time Machine), that’s their real problem. If a hacker locks my data, I have a very current copy of that data ready to move back onto my wiped computer, and I can maintain that with zero ongoing effort.

Another InfoSec professional here; this person is correct, this is very bad advice. There are multiple steps that can be taken short of disabling a very useful security feature.
