Wanna remove the only way to boot into the computer? Go ahead, you are in control. But sure hope you have a baxkup boot loader somewhere lol

    Oh Windows did mess with me a gazillion times in 2000s, when I was a poor kid with just one HDD, and tried to dual boot.

    The amount of times that me as a teenager had to call the computer shop after the OS being unusable because I was messing around was insane. They eventually just gave me the pirated copies of everything so I could reinstall stuff on my own. I really don't miss the times of using windows and the constant reinstalls and breakage it had.

    That example is particularly on point, since I've done it (removed the boot bits - oops!) for a few of these, and each time I used a Linux Live boot CD to recover.

    Even if I needed some other tool to repair things, the Linux Live CD went in first to do some backups.
