FWIW, there is a special command you can use to disable the apple unlock key for the firmware password. I don’t have it on hand


https://support.apple.com/guide/security/firmware-password-p...

> For users who want no one but themselves to remove their firmware password by software means, the -disable-reset-capability option has been added to the firmwarepasswd command-line tool in macOS 10.15. Before setting this option, users must acknowledge that if the password is forgotten and needs removal, the user must bear the cost of the logic board replacement necessary to achieve this.
