> you CANNOT brick your device with this software!

Disable Knox on a Samsung device and it will brick itself. Luckily when this happened to me I was still connected over ADB, able to re-enable it and the device unbricked

if you were able to reboot the device, was it really ever bricked?
Not "reboot". Re-enable the package I had disabled. If I had disconnected the phone from ADB it probably would have been soft-bricked forever.
You can delete Knox on some Samsung phones after reflashing the stock firmware.
