This is actually a security flaw that can be exploited to completely "take over" the machine. > Can a job get a pointer to its own TDE, much like it can the PCO pointer? ===> A job can get any TDE (including its own). Getting and working with the TDE is working "below" the MI (and thus strictly speaking off topic :-). You only want to go there if you *really* need to. What is the problem you are trying to solve?
