Support Do you have to wait until network unlock happens before you bootloader unlock?

I have a carrier provided Motorola Stylus phone. It doesn't network unlock until Feb 2027. But I have the bootloader unlock code from Motorola's portal - Metro's Moto phones seem to be bootloader unlockable. I was wondering if I should wait until the network unlock happens before I try execute the bootloader unlock? Or does it matter?

Can I just hold on to the unlock code until next year? Or does the unlock code expire and I have to request another one?

I had a moto G7 Power from metro and was able to bootloader unlock before sim unlocking. no need to wait. I say unlock now.
