Sure, but that’s not really what people mean when they talk about “stock android”. Generally it means a version you would find on a Pixel or Xperia phone, the bare minimum basically without complete overhauls like OneUI etc.
That version doesn’t exist is what I’m saying. The manufacturers have to put in significant work to get it to that point. And along the way they have to choose to make it similar to pixel/what people expect “stock” android to look like, instead of putting their own flair on it. My point is that it takes just as much work to make an android skin that feels “stock” as to make one that doesn’t. You can’t dismiss their version of Android as being “stock” because that doesn’t exist.
