Play Store has an attestation API, Google could simply make it harder to run banking apps and similar if you run GrapheneOS. Something like requiring banking apps to use a stricter mode. GrapheneOS even mentions it's not easy spoofing this entirely as it change often on the FAQ page.
There's only so much you can do as a maintainer of a custom OS like Graphene before its too hard to maintain. I don't think there's enough coming in by way of donations to play catch-up.
Need legislation quick. But I suspect the EU doesn't want side loading either in the grand scheme of surveillance.
