That's true if the only reason to buy a new phone is to use Lineage. That gets mitigated if you take into account installing one of these operating systems as one of the requirements to choose a phone next time you buy a new one.

    people keep bringing up buying a new phone for thousands of non-dollar currencies. . .

    consider this: pick a trashed phone out of the literal trash and 2nd hands around high-income households, look at 'teardown' videos like me, use a screwdriver to unscrew fromtcamera & whichever other component (Bluetooth, GSM, GPS, gyroscope, ...) & install LineageOS.
