Graphene is working with a manufacturer to build a device for them.
Also, Graphene isn’t the only game in town. Lineage is fine, yes, you can’t re-lock the bootloader on most devices, but frankly that risk is overstated for the average person. For the people who need that kind of security, if they’re that big of a target then the actors after them will have state-level capability. So it’s a deterrent for less-capable adversaries.
There are other phone companies.

Also you can build a LineageOS image that let’s you re-lock the bootloader if you really want that functionality.
It looks like a real hassle but it is possible.
Got a link to that?
Yes, but it’s even more of a hassle than I remembered and offers basically no benefit, it’s really not worth it.
