yes, android cant stop anyone from accessing recovery and fully reformatting it
but then now im not sure if this is a samsung or android feature, there is something called FRP locking
where if thief wants to access the stolen phone through a custom recovery (without formatting)
once they flash a custom recovery, the phone will not boot until you reflash stock.. which results in a full wipe as well so your data will not be stolen
however, i do agree.. that is the downside of android. without cable and pc can just access recovery and give it a full wipe
