That doesn’t seem quite right in reality, since the moment you have multiple devices connected to one switch and both sending data to the router, they’re sharing the connection. Switches can handle multiple connections at the same time way better than an AP, being able to receive from multiple devices at once, but the bandwidth will ultimately still be shared between the devices.

To be clear, I think part of it is that Fairphone wants hardware with long-term support so they can continue supplying replacement parts, but they also aren’t big enough to manufacture their own parts from scratch - so they end up needing to use hardware that GrapheneOS deems as lacking critical security features.
Though of course there are the parts GrapheneOS said about security updates being late and unsafe signing keys being used, which are independent from hardware.
