So if you unlock an Iphone and call Apple for service because something isnt working correctly, thats like asking them to support something that was altered beyond the means of standard operation. It makes no sense. And if any updates cause your Iphone to not work, it isnt their problem.

Where I work (RedHat), we support a CSB (Corporate Standard Build) for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. If you alter or root your own machine to change anything on the system, we wont support any problems that arrise from doing so. Not because we dont want to, but we waste our times trying to solve the problems that were created by the user, and not enough times on the problems from people that dont alter their software.
100% right on the warranty and right to service (everyone that unlocked them should know this anyway) But making the phone unusable can't possibly be legal. Unless it was in the terms and conditions statement. I wouldn't know because I would never spend that kind of money on a phone.
