The problem is that stock Android on Essential will no longer receive security updates. LineageOS will receive updates, but if you want to use things like Google Pay or Netflix, you'll have to install kernel mods to trick SafetyNet into thinking that it's not running LineageOS. I'm almost OK with doing that, but I think it's a tall order my partner (non-technical) who has been using an Essential.
