Yes, I found out that this code works even when trying to "remember" parental passcode, so it is uselless beyong GUI "restrictions.
Ultimately, I can just nuke the "factory_reset" binary (by replacing it with a /dev/null link), but it sits in /bin/ , and I am hesitant to touch it (in contrast to logging things, that sit in /usr/bin/ and /usr/sbin).
