"Google decided to not give it any more security updates"

I mean, this sounds like pretty good reason to me

It's only a reason to not use the base firmware the phone comes with.

The phone is perfectly fine and shame on Google for trying to make it worthless.

Because it's an entirely arbitrary and avoidable reason that causes e-waste. Seriously, change me a few $ per year so I can get extended security updates. I have no interested in replacing my phone while this one still works!

Pretty good reason to switch phone manufacturers.
