Or, Conversely, these systems won't be able to verify age and will just be shut out of adult content. Which is fine, just keep a windows machine around for porn and do your actual work on a real computer

> Which is fine
But it isn't fine. How long before that's no longer an option?
A few years ago it was "Apple won't let me side load apps, which is fine, I'll run android" now that's coming back and getting locked down even more.
How long before normal computers will all have signed bootloaders with only the OEM's OS of choice allowed to boot, 4 chains deep of verifying signatures on hardware security chips?
I can guarantee you that if this becomes ubiquitous and normalized for porn and social media, any code distribution site will be next.
