I think it still supports Google. If someone wants a Pixel and one less is available second hand, thats one more person buying it in store. Probably not 1:1 relationship there, but still.
Precious few people bother with alternative ROMs. GOS users are a small subset of that. The impact on new Pixel device sales is very close to zero. In future, there is the promise of a new OEM. I wouldn't sweat it.
