Honestly, this seems like an incredibly sensationalised take. The word “support” here probably doesn’t mean what you think it means.
With Boot Camp, Apple produced an installation wizard and an entire fleet of drivers to make Windows work acceptably on a Mac. They spent man-hours working on and testing Windows on their hardware. That was them “supporting” Windows.
So far, there is nothing that suggests that the bootloader will be locked or that it’ll be in any way impossible. It’s more about the fact that Apple just won’t help you do it, much in the way that booting Linux on a Mac works today but it isn’t a “supported” Boot Camp platform.

I agree that there can be a doubt in the meaning of his words, but Apple past and corporate strategy can show you very clearly what is their strategic goal. But we can take the bet here and I will come back here to tell you that I was right in 1 or 2 years.
