My pro 1 running lineageOS begs to disagree. Android can be customized to your liking if you know what you're doing. You may argue that that is removed from the default experience enough that it's not that valid of a use case, but w10privacy hardly is a common use case.
W10Privacy takes 5 minutes to run. Frankly, how long did it take you to go through all the lineOS hoops? And how many apps still don't work on your phone?
All of the apps I've ever installed have worked. The longest i've spent tinkering was to get gpay working after root, and I was trailblazing. The procedure I wrote then is still effective.
The only non-working app i've ever encountered was called "cats and soup" (an idle game) and I just had to hide lucky patcher.
In total I'd say I spent about 4 hours total on it. Sure it's more than the 5 minutes for w10Privacy but I get significantly more out of it, such as yt vanced, lucky patcher inapp payment emulation, OASP mods, and xposed and magisk modules, not to mention system-wide adblock.
