In terms of being open source and maintaining that model. Also having some of the parts actually be 3d printed. Other than that, I don't know, Ive never owned one, never used one. It is too expensive for me for the features it has. Also xl seems to be a unique thing. Too expensive, though.
As for flashing the Prusa, I don't follow Prusa, so I didn't know about that one, but voiding a warranty vs locking you out isn't the same thing really. Though I wouldn't consider it a good move, I understand it somewhat.
