That comment was made in the context of a thread about open source FPGA development tools.

And I'm questioning whether lack of open source FPGA development tools means that the device is "locked down". You can do everything that the device is designed to be able to do.

That's true for any locked down device. An iPhone can do everything it is designed to do yet it could also do so much more if it weren't locked down.

Ok, I understand now. It is locked down because it is locked down.
