GrapheneOS is not limited by Google, as long as the bootloader is unlockable and Google contnues releasing the sources. Longterm, the GOS project needs to support alternative hardware platforms.

I think the problem is your second assumption of “will continue releasing sources” is the one to fail.

The OEM makes the hardware tho. How does that help if Google stops releasing the Android source code?
