Break expectations. Bootstrap it through an esoteric-enough system. Write an Uxn emulator in assembly targeting the cushy environment that UEFI has and you've got a system with graphics, a text editor, a spreadsheet editor, an assembler, games, and maybe even more. I have a Z80-powered email appliance that can be loaded with programs from a connected device. Whoever is breaking my trust in trust surely won't have planned for that.
I am trying to imagine how the magnet could be compromised. Could you theoretically embed an electromagnetic and a controller within a decoy magnet and somehow detect what was being recorded and subvert it? Probably not but... No, just probably not.
We have tons and tons of backups of clean Linux isos, compilers, etc. The idea that we are going to lose the ability to easily have an uncompromised system is a fairy tale told by the people pushing bootstrapable builds.

but now they will via delegation to an automated analyst/systems programmer.
get ready.
the effort required for a complete infiltration has been lowered a great deal.
Write a subleq interpreter with a magnet and a steady hand? (Hopefully the magnet is not compromised)
