e OS is everything but secure
While they have no Google services, they still have no way to back up locally, they support Google accounts, and a non encrypted or even privacy oriented cloud provider is integrated deep(er) into their image than it has to be, making me question the integrity of E as a whole
You didn't specify a security focused image.
You just said non Google.
You can run e/OS without interacting with Google at all.
???
Like, you're not wrong that e/OS is nowhere near as secure as Graphene (who only support Google hardware, lets hope there aren't any SPECTRE or MeltDown style hardware flaws/backdoors) or Calyx...
... but you didn't say you wanted a security focused OS... you just said you wanted a non Google OS.
