Choice 2

VZW "we won't sell your phone unless you lock the bootloader because we're bitches"

Sammy "well we can either lose millions of sales on the largest network in America to make a point or just lock the damn bootloader and release an off-contract developer edition to try to make up for it, and in the meantime, we will continue to have unlocked bootloaders on every other network because we're developer friendly and not trying to be Apple like HTC is"

I would have made the same choice if I owned a multi billion dollar conglomerate. Verizon is to blame here, they order the product a certain way or else, Samsung just fulfills orders. HTC actively locks bootloaders on all networks and has their garbage "HTC dev we void your warranty and this only applies to some devices"

I will keep my galaxy nexus over anything HTC has to offer
Sam could lose more if they tarnish the Sammy name. And they would have still sold to verzion why becuz they are the number 1 android phone maker Verizon would have been the only ones with out s3
