Personally, I don’t see how a TPM module is more useful than full disk encryption with a password you enter on boot.

I struggle to see how it makes automatic login safer given it does nothing to protect against the really common threat of someone physically stealing your laptop or desktop.

I don’t trust any encryption or authentication system that I don’t have access to the keys for. Microsoft has also kinda made me feel it’s more for vendor lock in, like they did with secure boot.

Still, I’m probably being unreasonably pessimistic about it though - be interested to see any practical use cases of it.
