It's very easy to remove that and ask for a password on first boot. It could literally be one line in a shell script. They could put it in a text menu if they want to get fancy.
More professional (non-hobby) RP based devices probably aren't using stock vanilla Raspbian anyway.
Raspberry pi OS != Raspbian
Those are two completely separate and different OSes.
Force of habit. I've been working with Pis for a while, long before the name change.
Wait, is Rasbian not a thing anymore?
It is. There are two. Raspberry Pi Os, and Raspbian. The former used to be Raspbian. I still get them confused.
