Space travel in general isn’t very realistic: the distances are way too short, the max speed depends on width and not mass, and you lose your speed if you stop the engines. I’m considering trying to make a mod to improve some of these things, since I couldn’t find one on the portal, but I haven’t got around to it yet.

It would certainly be preferable to use two devices in this context, but first verify that the apps in question actually use the Play Integrity API, and that you can’t replace them with websites. For myself, I use a Pixel with a custom ROM, and I’ve never had any problems. Of course, it could get worse over time, it depends on the policies of the developers.

Taking your requirements at face value though, iPhone is definitely the correct choice. For the longest time, it was google wants your data but doesn’t care about control, while apple wants control over what you do (to force you to buy their other products) but doesn’t care about your privacy one way or the other. Of course, in the past few years, they’ve both taken some of each other’s worst attributes, but I still think iPhone is marginally better on privacy in stock configuration.

There are definitely ways in which apple is worse: they track your location while your device is powered off, not merely whenever it’s connected to a cell tower or wifi network, and I think they still scan photos uploaded to icloud (but that last point could be out of date, somebody correct me if so). But all that can be worked around if necessary, and in any case it’s not as bad as stock android.

Finally, consider how much has to be tied to your phone at all. Maybe your government apps need to be on the phone, but maybe social media and wikipedia can be primarily used on your laptop, loosening the requirements somewhat. Maybe email can go to your x86 boxes only, even if facebook messenger doesn’t. It depends on your situation.

I think the difference is, your phone is encrypted. In order to access any of the data, an attacker has to brute force your password (unless you left it powered on and it hasn’t run out of battery yet), which means a clear security boundary that had to be broken.

Of course, banning circumvention is clearly bad in lots of other contexts (DMCA), but I think that a phone dropped in an emergency is a pretty good case. There’s maybe even an argument than an unencrypted drive should be protected in that context, though I’m not sure it’s my position.
