Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification. Is that something they could have gone without and still be as secure as possible?
Not if you ask them but taking the time to design a system that isn't reliant on a strong client (and then open sourcing it) would probably be more secure, and obviously more inclusive.
For instance, I'm very eager to switch to a lknux phone but having blockers like this is forcing me to stay on Android, even though I am sick and tired or the enshittification.
