> pretend to support devices past their vendor EOL

They don't "pretend" anything. They are very clear that, after a device no longer gets kernel/driver updates from the manufacturer, they can only provide OS/framework updates.

> don't support locking the bootloader to enable verified boot on many supported devices

Can you expand on this more? My understanding was that you could do this on Pixel phones, but that no other manufacturer supports adding user keys to the bootloader.



Some do.

The point is, it's not as secure to run around with this disabled.

No, it's not only about in-person or targeted attacks.
