So, this is something that can be done, but involves hardware hacking. It's up to you if you feel comfortable going down this route.
The way to clear the BIOS password from the X1 carbons is pretty well established: you use an EEPROM / flash chip programmer like the XGecu T56 or the new T76, or there are other flash programmers out there by other brands. You have to either connect to the BIOS chip on the motherboard or desolder it to mount it inside a chip reader module for the chip programmer, then you overwrite the BIOS with a clean version that doesn't have a password.
It is a non-trivial job, but can be done. As to 'is this worth doing' - either for you to do yourself (buy the hardware and spend the time learning how to use it) or paying for someone else to do it... only you can answer that.
