Basically, reflash spi chips and it’ll be gone, and to be infected by that, person gotta have physical access to hardware he hacks, and physical access is root access as always has been

Nope. You do not need physical access for it, just root access. and you HW is compromised with only means to recover it is SPI flashing of CPU.
