I think that sounds like a damn solid plan, personally. Not sure if the GrapheneOS devs would go for it. The lead dev (who I think stepped down, so may not be a factor now) had some strongly negative opinions towards a Linux phone due to all of its security holes compared to Android, but like… It’s not as if those things couldn’t be addressed like you describe. It would just take time.

Google will forever control Android. I would prefer if he just worked on Linux (phone & desktop) to the benefit of all.

Google has more people working in Android then GrapheneOS does, it’s not possible for them to go completely independent.
