Yes. Is it possible in principle to prevent flashing without bricking the device? How would one do that on a deep level? I don't think it can be done on computers, but am happy to be corrected.

not without boobytrapping your phone by adding capacitors etc that would shortcircuit it in case flashing hardware was connected to it
