If this is all about some secret keys, couldn’t they release the project without those keys, and ask users to get those keys through… Uh… Legal means. I think that’s how they got around it in bioses for earlier consoles.

Edit: I see. Fuck Nintendo.

That’s exactly what they did.

Nintendo’s argument was that the software itself primarily facilities piracy and that to use it, you either had to circumvent protections on your own hardware to extract the keys or pirate someone else’s keys.

They’re still wrong for abusing DMCA to remove the software, but it would take an expensive and lengthy court battle to get them to back off

The fact that you need any money if someone sues you is beyond me. How braindead or blind does someone have to be to facilitate this?
