This is important for us because Asahi Linux is, from the machine's point of view, a new macOS install. The final flow/tooling is still undecided as we basically have to cobble things together from Apple tools intended for macOS, but there *should* be a way to avoid phone-home.
Just to be clear here, the phoning home isn't about "may I install Asahi Linux on my Mac", it's about "may I install the macOS bootloader version / macOS version Asahi Linux pretends to be on my Mac".

It's a security thing to avoid *unknowingly* installing vulnerable versions of macOS. Apple ultimately wants you to give consent to remove your machine security *through* a trusted environment to begin with.
There is no requirement nor *way* of phoning home to ask about any specific custom kernel or OS. Apple doesn't know what custom kernel you put on your machine, or that you disabled security. All they do is certify that your initial/bootstrap macOS install was up to date.
What I don't get is... how come the bootloader isn't required to be signed by Apple? 
It is. We cannot replace the bootloader. We can replace the OS (which we will replace with *another* bootloader), since the OS is allowed to be unsigned after you re-configure the boot policy to permissive security.
