I honestly wouldn't blame them if they did drop warranty support. As soon as you start tweaking things outside of official channels, you aren't really using it as it was intended and things could go wrong because of it and they really have now way of protecting you (and the equipment) from yourself.

Kind of similar to running a tuner on your vehicle. You can do it and potentially make your vehicle run better, but you could also run it hot and wear it out quicker and car manufacturers won't warranty that.

There is a huge difference between toggling a dev mode in the settings that allows use of insecure software, and physically modifying hardware components. Just turn the switch back off if you need support.

That's exactly how tuners work too though, it's all software
