I don't think so. Blowing a fuse is just how the "no downgrades" policy for firmware is implemented. No different for other vendors actually, though the software usually warns you prior to installing an update that can't be manually rolled back.

Google pushed a non-downgradable final update to the Pixel 6a.

I was able to install Graphene on such a device. Lineage was advertised and completely incompatible, but some hinted it would work.
