> How about microG not contacting Google servers at all?

I already addressed that in my comment, right after the line you quoted.

> Letting Google handle push notifications is different from using them as your location provider, and both are different from letting all Play Services lose on your system.

And what would you say GrapheneOS does of those? Do you know, or do you just assume that GrapheneOS does the worse there?

Where? You suggested it would go through Murena instead, but you can fully disable third party services by disabling external push providers and by using on-device databases for GPS. e/OS directly offers this configuration during initial setup.

I'm not necessarily trying to present either as "better" or "worse" since they both have their merits depending what exactly you're after (which I don't feel this is the right time/place to have a detailed rundown of). It was the root comment that posited e/OS was strictly inferior for people who care about freedom.
