The big issue that the post is trying to address is that AOSP and therefore derivatives like LineageOS are also missing these patches for up to 6 months. When OEMs get security preview patches, they may only push ~10% of them earlier than their assigned date too. When switching you could be *less* patched, and it is the upstream's fault.

GrapheneOS on the security preview channel is the ONLY Android distribution delivering all available patches on a regular basis. Despite the embargo preventing releasing the sources, it is easy to use reverse engineering tools to compare differences between standard and security preview builds to find the vulnerability AND the embargo doesn't protect against a resourceful threat actor somehow getting that access.
