I am not, but the realityis that other people want to use them or apps relying on them and therefore device manufacturers that want to sell devices outside our little nerd bubble are more or less forced to offer them by default.

If you want to be able to sell your device with google services, you need to ship that rom by default.
So if Fairphone made a different image without GoogleServices, people would still have to install it on their own.
Your Problem with people that have trouble doing that, won't change a bit.

@rraggl @SrMono @neons @WeAreFairphone You have CustomROMS ranging from Google-Free Android to a complete Linux like PostMarketOS.
What is missing for you?

Keep in mind that you can only receive a google ready license for your device if you ship the google services by default.
Any other operating system must be installed by the user after purchase or by some other company that does it for them.
Where is the difference between Fairphone offering a google free OS to install post purchase or supporting the community around E or Calyx to make their version work on Fairphones?

Es gibt noch https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1897900 für ein Opt-In.
Die Sache ganz rausnehmen ist natürlich noch besser.
