Beyond pure principle, flashing would be very useful when it comes to extending the lifecycle of the device beyond its original purpose. They're quite powerful and could be turned into a small server for example, similar to a Raspberry Pi. While lacking in ports, they do come with a battery, wifi+cellular and multiple cameras already built in.
Exactly. My Android phones as they slow, I swap to lineage OS and they're butter smooth and fast again. None of that planned obsolescence nonsense. Showing what a scam it is.
