ignorant thought. anything is possible on any system, its only a matter of time and development. i recall when all i heard was "360 would never be modded/cracked" becuase "they learned from the previous serious security holes". 3 months later, firmware flashes.
i think the frustration comes from the mass amounts of your casual modder that seemed less abundant with other systems. they toss around words they barely understand passed a basic definition, and have hopeful thoughts of things working based entirely off of concept, even though the actual process of bringing it to fruition would be light years beyond their grasp. yes, its annoying, but all of us were once like this, and eventually, that same hope and curiosity lead us to investigating, tinkering, testing, until we came up with out own mods and discoveries.
i remember a point where i was afraid to do xbox softmods.. not too long after, i was extending capacitors off of the mobo, laying them sideways, and bending down the heatsink to save an inch on my slimbox design.
i dont think theres anything really constructive to gain out of bashing people for thinking you can unbrick, rollback firmware, or get banned/disabled... none of the three are incredibly out of reach. in a hobby/interest/business like this, saying "is there a way" and "what if" is pretty much the foundation of everything
