I had the red pill mode enabled and probably installed around 10 apps only once did it cause a problem to my device which i fixed after a bit of reading . I knew there were risks but i did not care as after all i had just bought a Open devive which i thought meant i could choose to do whatever i wanted with it . Then after the last firmware update i find that redpill mode has been disabled ( imho made the device a little more closed ) and now i have to do something new to me and learn how to use x-terminal install things like rootish which i know nothing about . My point is that there are probably only a few people out there who are going to bother enabling the red pill mode most would probably be afraid of bricking there device so why bother taking away my choice to do what i want with my device in the simpliest way for me . Also how many devices have been bricked ireversably ? Openess i thought meant choice and now one of my choices has gone .
