If you had read the article instead of just blindly reacting to the title you would have seen that this is actually to prevent that.

Nahh, their reasoning is BS IMO. It’s not an iPhone or something it’s a hobby product for tinkering with.

If someone modifies an asic by soldering a new ram chip on it, that’s grounds to null warranty, no? So their undue support claims is BS, ditto to the reputational damage (as if they aren’t doing that right now).
Or better yet, why don’t they modularize this component from the rest of the device?
