Usually stuff like that gets removed because bo one is maintaining that bit of code and it's starting to cause problems, typically security-flavoured problem.

Honestly, isn't it google who is making these changes to AOSP? And not LineageOS deliberately pushing this into your OS?

Yes.

so port the changes needed and push them to gerrit.

people like to leech off lineage and not push anything upstream.

The best part about open source is you can push patches up to be merged into the project.

dude, all i wanted was google sans flex/google sans font on grapheneos. nothing else. there's literally no single way to get it! everything else is possible, but i fucking hate this default sans font.
