Are there any devices that, by default/by design, allow the user to unlock the bootloader totally offline, no ransom, validation, account, internet or whatever required?

A +1 for older 1+ devices. I have a 9 and unlocking and rooting was simple. I also have a 10 that I recently acquired and it looks like things got more sketchy, e.g. I’m not sure quite how risky this is. Like you, I cannot settle for stock, and I find myself in the similar situation of picking my next phone based primarily off of user freedom and only secondarily based on specs.
