WTF is a KDF? A startling revelation from a French prison
Bruteforce of such random password is just not plausible and talks about KDF "weakness" is just a distraction. I think most likely it was evil maid attack.
Here are projects which try to mitigate some of evil maid attack risks:

What do you don't like about Linux? What is Windows doing better?
There's a project called "mortar" (as in, gluing all these bricks together) that was attempting to simplify this. Though it's lost steam, reading through it's simple bash scripts was a great place to start for me. This guide for Fedora also helped a lot.

Authenticated Boot and Disk Encryption on Linux
There have been a number of attempts to solve this problem, but the most complete appear to be Mortar (a project I head) and safeboot.dev
I highly recommend taking a look at either of these projects if you want be able to improve both your convenience through auto unlocking, and security through broadened scope of audit.
