" appears to have blacklisted it on the basis of its model name" Why is that? I think Pixel was always good for this. The problem with rooted phones is that many bank applications wont run anymore.

Pixels were always mediocre. LTE stability issues, major call bugs, GPU driver issues, camera cover cracking, etc. Some of those problems are Tensor SoC related.
