As I already said, ofcourse you can lock it, and aslong as you make an
explicit mention of the lock being in place before the customer pays any

merely pointing out that he should atleast mention it (if he didnt already),
and that if you want to lock it using alias's that you'd also have to lock
cvars like "toggle".
