Wish they’d focus on phones NOT made by major corporations like Google and Motorola, and instead focus on small companies’ phones like Fairphone, Pine64, Purism, Jolla, etc.

They can’t. They require extremely up to date firmware and very short update cycles. Only large corporations with huge phone platforms are able to do satisfy that.

They don’t want to, which is fine for their goal of having the absolutely most secure phone possible.

That is mincing words but as long as they don’t change their requirements (which they don’t want to) they actually can’t, without failing those requirements.
