OK, let's say it like that : some people who install wireshark/nessus/whatever use it to crack into systems, so people should be forbidden to get those programs...
That's the same reasoning.

Nobody's forbidding anyone from running anything. It's a matter of default policy. The default policy being imposed here is that only signed code should be able to directly influence hardware behaviour. Signing a bootloader that then executes unsigned code is a pretty obvious circumvention of that policy.
