I wish flashing custom ROMs was like flashing custom firmware to routers. With most routers you can return it back to stock and no one will know the difference.
I just know that unlocking a pixel voids the warranty
And how do you “just know” that? Any sources? Everything I’ve read and even done with my Pixel says otherwise, though I do return to stock and relock before returning.

Is this not the case with the pixel?
It is the case for a Pixel. Flash stock, relock and no one will know you’ve messed with your device.
Once its unlocked it trips a fuse on a hardware level.
A pixel is better but not perfect
I think that’s Samsung. The Pixels don’t have a fuse AFAIK.
I’ve never owned a Samsung device. I just know that unlocking a pixel voids the warranty
No it doesn’t. Also you can just relock the bootloader. Google doesn’t care.
