Well of course, thats the setup. Disabling secure boot. If it didn’t stop you from booting a third party OS without you toggling that BIOS option, then the security feature would be pointless.
Speaking from my background, it prevents someone from trying to boot using an external device to access your system, assuming you have a BIOS password in place.
Of course encrypting your drive works just as well, but security in depth demands a “why not both?” Approach
What is Secure Boot actually good for? Serious question.

I’ve been wary of secure boot and pluton chips for this reason.
Then you haven’t set it up right
Nah man, it didn’t even allowed to boot iso from ventoy until i disabled secure boot

I just don’t bother with secure boot as its not in my threat model. I turn it off

Imagine if in the future that option becomes untouchable
Then it would be an issue and I would not suggest anyone buy those machines
