As I understand there can also be other valuable statements in the voucher: For example, I may not make much of the vendor's statement that this is actually a device they produced running firmware version X. But provided I trust them to the point that if they say it's version X it really is (possibly aided by by any RATS things through which the silicon vendor confirms that claim), I'd put much value in an escrow agent's attestation that says that they hold firmware and firmware signing keys, and that they will be escrowed as soon as the vendor stops providing updates. At any rate, I think that the next iteration of the document will be more ACE EST, and for EST it doesn't matter too much whether that initial all-privileged device owner is established through EST, TOFU or something like EAP-NOOB.
