I know, and also for me it's interesting a new engine for an old car, but
you will never exit from the 1&2 statement if new users will remain cut off
from the game, imho.

your solution is directed only to a subset of older users and this can
hardly embrace a wide audience that allows to lower the final prices

from my pov, you are cutting out both:
- fresh users, potentially interested in getting a real open phone
- old users, interested in getting an open phone competitive on price
