Would this actually brick them? Wouldn't a factory reset (how I've always re-imaged Macs) not wipe that out?

If the users manage to get the hardware banned from Apple dev tools, then it's as good as bricked in my opinion as it can't function in its' intended fashion and a factory reset doesn't help.
developer tools are linked to your iCloud. Why would apple ban them at the hardware level?
