I'm not sure what you are trying to argue but people routinely buy used computers on market place. Rasperry pies with locked keys are essentially paper weights once the owner doesn't want to use them anymore.
And realistically, the biggest ewaste generators are especially smartphones nowadays which are too locked to be reused well.

Why can't the owner who wants to sell their locked Pi give the buyer the key?
