I think the industry/market generally realises that Graphene is the most secure Android OS there is. I’m interested in trying to understand how they implemented locking the bootloader and why other ROMs aren’t picking this up yet. Maybe it’s just a lot of work.
I think people who go on to flash Calyx definitely know the advantages of locking one’s bootloader and that using Calyx doesn’t let you do that. I think ROMs such as these also explicitly mention that the bootloader cannot be locked once said ROM is installed. I understand if someone doesn’t have the time but if they had enough time to understand how to flash a ROM on their mobile one would think they’d be interested in such details too (well, if they aren’t, then they likely don’t care).

From what I know it isn’t only about “a lot of work” its about phone vendors having to support that in the first place.

From what I see in this post and others doesn’t seem like it. Seems like a lot of people are unaware of this issue.
That’s only possible on a small subset of devices and I actually remember that even for the FP4 they said in some devices it doesn’t work due to some bug and may lead to a bricked phone.

Bootloader is relocked after flashing Calyx on an FP4. Are you saying that isn’t actually the case?
