Eh, not really. They stuck a bit in the introductory paragraph saying that the white paper is also about Secure Boot, but everything else seems to be entirely tailored to TCG/TPM implementations.
Seems like mentioning SB was really last minute and not particularly well thought out.

It's an update of their original paper on trusted computing
https://www.bsi.bund.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/BSI/Siche...
The main changes are actually adding reference to secure boot, the section on complete control by device owners, the section on Freedom to Decide and a couple of other things.
Overall, I think it's quite considered. It has been brewing for quite a long period of time (it was hoped that this would be published over a year ago when the Secure Boot problems were just beginning)
