Comment on Google “wontfix” a “panic pin code to wipe device” issue in Androidparent

Comments

My top 3 suspicions why this won't be added:

- The use case is consider too 'niche'.

- There is some concern that users will wipe their phones by accident and raise support tickets and/or engage in any other activity that causes additional work/cost for google.

- 1st party support might step on various governments toes by shipping this by default.
