    Hello Wittycat, 

     

    I recommend you to submit your suggestion to Windows engineering team via Feedback hub app. You can launch the app by pressing Windows key + F.

BitLocker is NOT available in Home edition of Windows because encryption is NOT mission critical for home users. Even though they have important data but they are NOT as critical as business. In addition, home users tend to forgot backup and maintain BitLocker keys and in case they lose it, it would be problem for them.

However, as KapilArya mentioned, you may file suggestion in Feedback Hub and as for its support for Home edition of Windows 10.
