It becomes a problem when Google decides to keep those security fixes to themselves. I can very much see microG (a GMS reimplementation) provide the same service using their own compiled patches, kind of like Linux distributions provide packages and kernel updates developed by Intel, Microsoft, Red Hat, etc, which end up publicly available.

MicroG development is pretty much in limbo right now, with only one developer who has very little time to spend on it.

It's a shame because it is an amazing project.. It only started fully supporting Android 10 last month.

It's not in limbo - it was in limbo.
