Sony Ericsson’s Android bootloader unlocking site goes live

Someone help me understand what is going on here. Is Sony handing over root access because:

A. they themselves can’t get a handle of the wild wild west that is Android.

or

B. Android when not “released to the wolves” sucks and it would be best to let the community do as they please?

Either way, this is a bit of a “smh” for both parties. Get it right from the get go and you wont have to sign over your source code to users.
