    Because making a power user take a more complicated path to achieve something is better than having an incopetent user brick their entire machine by accident?

      this is not a “more complicated” path. this is a path that will purposely lock you out of other features, some of which you may be obliged to use. that or they won’t even make it a possibility and you can go hunting for unpatched exploits to regain control over your own device.
