This will be so useless, it will be triggered so often by parents snatching phones from teenagers and become an annoyance.

Seems like it will fulfill its purpose then - to protect said teenager’s data.

Not the teenager’s phone. The parents paid for it… and continue to pay for it through the subscription of cellular service. Unfortunately any attempt to keep the parent out would be accurately described as theft or destruction of property.

I think if parents need that much control then Android has features for parental control. I think 🤔, it’s admin mode or something

Well, by that logic the parents can do whatever they want with the phone, yes, including stopping cellular service or resetting it entirely. But the OS would still protect the teenager’s data from unauthorized access.
