There is no other way to rephrase his questions to suit discussion of Aegis, open mode or any firmware-related restrictions.

You are mistaken.
- "/" in usual language means "or" (neither "xor" nor "and")
- you cannot be tied to a "network" unless your phone only does one frequency. I freely assumed that he meant "tied to a network operator" which contains sim and firmware lock. It may well mean "specifically tied to use the phone only on the networks owned by my operator", which then does not contains firmware lock.

two conclusions here:
- Maybe I'm mistaken, but you can't assess it from the OP only
- I'm wasting my time, and yours (and anybody reading that: sorry), but you quoted xkcd first
