GrapheneOS is the extremely paranoid security-above-literally-anything-else ROM so of course they’d say it’s a bad idea.
The TLDR is that, without special protection (bootloader relocking, which is the reason why Graphene only supports the extremely limited amount of devices it does), rooting and bootloader unlocking intentionally punches holes in Android’s security model in exchange for greater control.
Why are people saying it’s a bad idea? Especially in the grapheneos circle. You won’t get info on their forum about rooting it.
