Claiming that Tails works on "any computer" is indeed not technically
correct, and I'm afraid that it might cause bad feelings for users who
are not able to install Tails on the device they want to.
Another statement that's not technically correct is "It's impossible to
not encrypt". It is technically possible to store data unencrypted on
the Tails device. But it's hard enough to achieve that I don't think it
can realistically happen by accident. So I'm fine with this simplification.
