Oh god, it is one thing to have it in Windows on a PC, but imagine having it on a device with a locked bootloader.

Obviously you should never pay for a device where they won't support you, the owner, unlocking the bootloader, but obviously people do. I'm not sure if Xiaomi are one of the manufacturers that do not support it.
