It's probably built on systemd's Secure Boot + immutability support.
As said above, it's about who controls the keys. It's either building your own castle or having to live with the Ultimate TiVo.
We'll see.

And once you remove the friction for requiring cryptographic verification of each component, all it takes is one well-resourced lobby to pass a law either banning user-controlled signing keys outright or relegating them to second-class status. All governments share broadly similar tendencies; the EU and UK govts have always coveted central control over user devices.
Doesn't have to be. While I'm not a fan of systemd (my comment history is there), I want to start from a neutral PoV, and see what it does.
I have my reservations, ideas, and what it's supposed to do, but this is not a place to make speculations and to break spirits.
I'll put my criticism out politely when it's time.
We all know who controls the keys. It's the first party who puts their hands on the device.
