So Apple has made two changes in this update. In addition to frequent elliptic curve rekeying, they also use a second “post quantum secure” algorithm: Kyber. This algorithm rekeys as well, but a little less frequently. (This is because Kyber cophertexts are much bigger and “eat” more space on the wire.)
