I think Bambu is taking a reasonable approach - allowing people to do what they want, with the understanding that you can't have it both ways, so you are either in the closed ecosystem with support and warranty, or not.

I mean even if you install X1 Plus you're still in the closed eco system hardware wise. Sure you can get the belts and hotends from third parties. But the mainboards not. If that one breaks you can't use anyone elses
