Actually it does. After all the warrant was issued after apple claimed they have the technical capability to do so. I am willing to bet that even judges will admit laws of physics being higher power than them.

Apple screwed themselves by not creating lets say double signed bootloaders - the code must be signed by the owner and by apple to run. In that case the only probable attack is microcode on the cpu or apple saying to the federal government - here are the transistors you need - good luck getting to them - we don't have the equipment to dig in microchips.
