ermmm no... my understanding is if a device is bootlocked.. grub or secure-boot, then the vendor only needs to provide a way a client having ownership of the device
can make, rebuild, duplicate, circumvent the secure-boot. ie... make it undoable/bypassable and as long as they allow users to install their own secure boot keys

now im not  LAWYER .... However.... if a client can regenerate keys/bootloader/image then i believe your safe.
