I also ran into this issue a while ago when I was trying to implement a custom matter bridge. I reported this to Homey and their reply was basically “we are not sure yet if we are going to allow this”. I would suggest to open a support ticket yourself as well just so they see that there is demand for this feature.

EDIT: Full response I got back in April:

> It is indeed not possible to add uncertified Matter devices. This is because the devices are not tested and we cannot be sure that this won’t have consequences.
> 
> Perhaps this feature will be available in the future, but I can’t make promises.
> 
> I hope this answers your question to your satisfaction, which is why I’m closing your ticket. If you need additional support, please feel free to re-open your ticket by answering this email.
> 
> I wish you a great day and a lot of fun with Homey!
