It is, phones are computers and should be open like they are, you can only game on videogames, at most watch netflix too.
Consoles are all x86 hardware there is literally no reason you can’t run a full OS on them… except the manufacturers lock them down with firmware.
Are you going to argue that locking down the firmware and preventing side-loading of apps and operating systems on all consoles should be banned?
yes, that could be very good for the end user
