Just reflashed to latest mobian, it never asked for disk encryption?

You probably used the installer image when you did it before, rather than the normal image. It is probably possible to convert an existing install to an encrypted one, but I suspect it'll be easier and more reliable to back up at least any user data then reinstall using the installer image and restore user data. I say this having looked at doing a similar conversion on an older linux laptop install - the conversion process was at best some "here's how I did it" pages rather than something properly documented, and if any of it wasn't quite right there was a chance future updates would fail in interesting ways.
Yes you're correct. Checking my current image, it seems I didn't download the "installer". I didn't know there was a difference.
I didn't restore any data yet, so I'll just reinstall using "mobian-installer-pinephone-phosh-20210516.img", instead of "mobian-pinephone-phosh-20210517.img".
I wonder how many others missed this difference.
