Is this really the sole reason? I always thought it was just about supporting the hardware as the pixels are being built differently compared to Samsung, Xiaomi ...
Wished this was possible on a Shiftphone, re-locking a bootloader doesn't seem that hard. (Though mainly only possible with stock ROM)
Yes, it is. It's the reason Graphene says themselves. Graphene is all about reducing potential attack vectors, de-googling just happens to be in line with that goal. An unlocked bootloader is a massive security vulnerability.
