And I suspect they will lock it down in a year or two.
It was only really open to ease the transition between intel and arm.

Give it up. People have been predicting this for 15 years.
You can’t have a development machine locked down like iOS. As long as the Mac is the development machine at apple it will need to be able to run arbitrary code.
It will still run arbitrary code... Within macos...
But they'll remove support for other OS's
The company making locked down laptops is Google.
I mean it'd be pretty easy for Apple to just make a special version of the OS/bootloader/whatever for their internal use
They could. They won't. Macs will never be bootloader locked, on that I'm confident.
