It's possible to not implement remote attestation even when you implement secure boot.

This company is explicitly all about implementing remote attestation (which is a form of DRM):

Is there a HN full moon out?

Again, this is wrong.

DRM is a policy.

Remote attestation is a technology.

You can use remote attestation to implement DRM.

You can also use remote attestation to implement other things.

there are no other things. The entire point of remote attestation is to manage(i.e. take away) rights of user that runs it, unless you own entire chain, which you do not on any customer device
