> Someone should make a business out of selling them pre-flashed with valetudo for a less technical audience…

Please don't. Attracting a less technical audience to the project would be immensely harmful to it. It is already quite difficult to deal with issues that technical people might have. You simply do not want everyone to use your open source project. There is also no point in doing so. Why would one want to make their own life harder?

I don't know if by "make their own life harder" you mean the maintainer (you) or the user, but, as a user, valetudo has saved me. The original Xiaomi app is buggy, slow, and phones home, but Valetudo just works locally. It's amazing, thank you!
