I will still purchase Pixels because they isolate the modem.

If that were true, how could they be affected by a bug that allows full device compromise via the baseband?

They're not affected, or at least less affected. The baseband doesn't have direct memory access like on other phones.

Do you have more information on this? I was not aware pixel phones have any additional protection against modem exploits.
