Then you haven't set it up right

Nah man, it didn't even allowed to boot iso from ventoy until i disabled secure boot

Well of course, thats the setup. Disabling secure boot. If it didn't stop you from booting a third party OS without you toggling that BIOS option, then the security feature would be pointless.

Imagine if in the future that option becomes untouchable

Then it would be an issue and I would not suggest anyone buy those machines
