I think it's better to come up with replacements for those Google services and apps instead of rewriting the entire operating system. You need to solve the same problems on a linux smartphone as well, so Android gave you a lot of time

If you have multiple WireGuard versions, in a migration setting, you also need to do some negotiation at the start, no? Wouldn't that be potentially vulnerable to downgrade attacks as well?
