Or is that fraud? Idk I’m a potato

If you want to keep your warrantee, dont tune it. As soon as you tune it and something goes wrong, inputting your factory tune to get your service under warranty would be fraud. You do you though.

What about using a spare ecu?

The logic checks out.

These cars are pretty reliable if you take care of them. So I went stage 1 way before warranty was up. I remember stage 1 OFT tune felt smoother and pulled better on the highway. Not earth shattering but better.
