I'm staying with Calyx just because I don't want to run Google binaries. What's encouraging your switch?
When I installed Calyx then, GOS didn't have the Google-Play sandbox & now it does. Along with Vanadium.
DivestOS was a choice but now it's dead, also for some reason Pixel 4a doesn't have a TWRP image ?
I don't trust the sandbox enough. MicroG on calyx does the play emulation just fine for me.
Anyway, good luck and I hope it goes well!
