Hi Neo...
I am certainly getting a little cheesed off with Apple's attitude; their latest incarnation...
This has nailed the coffin lid on Apple for me now, I will not be buying another Apple item:
Apple locks new iPhone batteries to prevent third-party repair, report says | Ars Technica
This, along with, the hardware interface added between MOBO and HDD to make the FORCED? encrypted DRIVE impossible to read from or write to from an external live linux boot source.
This addition supposedly makes it _impossible_ to install another OS on an external drive, let alone the internal one.
Not quite true there is a back door and this current MBP with its builtin HW add-on I have been able to fool it.
I still can't read or write to the internal drive but I run this current full install Linux mint 19 on it without any problems from both USB stick and this current external HDD...
EDIT:
I have 2 MBPs, 1 iMac, and 1 iPad...

if_ipheth
IPHETH(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual IPHETH(4)
NAME
ipheth -- USB Apple iPhone/iPad tethered Ethernet driver
SYNOPSIS
To load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
if_ipheth_load="YES"
Alternatively, to compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device uhci
device ohci
device usb
device ipheth
DESCRIPTION
The ipheth driver provides support for network access through Apple iPhone and iPad devices, often referred to as USB tethering.
ipheth should work with any Apple iPhone or iPad device. In most cases this must be explicitly enabled on the device first.
For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8). The device does not support different media types or options.
HARDWARE
The following devices are supported by the ipheth driver:
o Apple iPhone tethering (all models)
o Apple iPad tethering (all models)
SEE ALSO
arp(4), cdce(4), intro(4), netintro(4), urndis(4), usb(4), ifconfig(8), usbconfig(8)
HISTORY
The ipheth device driver first appeared in FreeBSD 8.2.
AUTHORS
The ipheth driver was written by Hans Petter Selasky <hselasky@FreeBSD.org>.
BUGS
Some devices may need to be manually configured to use an alternative configuration with the usbconfig(8) utility. A command similar to
usbconfig -u 1 -a 2 set_config 3
may be required if the device is not recognised automatically by ipheth after it is connected.
