I think you're confusing having the potential in the IDE with getting support from ST to set it up.
For support in setting it up - which is what you were asking for - you need to go to the 3rd-party.
But I do tend to agree that it seems a bit heavy-handed of ST to lock that particular thread.
It's not like the Black Magic probe is pretending to be an ST product - as the fakes/clones do.
It does seem that the Black Magic probe is a bona fide product.
ST staff might choose not to provide support, but it doesn't seem helpful to block it entirely from the community.
A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
