The software updates are maybe not an argument when it comes to degoogling? Then it depends if the OS they plan to use still sends updates.
The hardware driver updates are absolutely critical if you want to have a secure phone. The phone has to be within the support window, to get any hardware driver updates. The risk surface of a phone's hardware is huge, you've got the Bluetooth drivers, you've got the Wi-Fi drivers, you've got the modem drivers, and any other sensors I may have forgotten about.
