I'm not sure what you mean here. If we assume that most users won't
ever turn on debugging, and we assume that the attacker might turn on
debugging. Then what is the purpose of asking about wiping the phone
at the time of turning on debugging?

The only thing in that direction I could see doing would be to ask at
the initial phone boot if the user wants to enable security features
like "wipe on debug turn-on". But I doubt that we'll be ok with adding
UI during the first-time-run specifically about developer features.
