Lots of people use the iPhone SE or are holding onto the iPhone mini 13. Dislocating your thumb to bring up the Control Center is shit. (Reachability and Back Tap are not solutions.)

The iPhone 13 mini is a faceID device - but I’m holding onto it until the bitter end. But we’ve been using iPhone SE as company phones until they were discontinued- the devices are perfectly usable for all basic use cases.

The internet means it's easy to find "lots" of people for anything. Excluding yourself how many iPhones do you see in the wild have a home button? I'd estimate less than 1 in 20, or 5%. If less than 5% of people are keeping their phones while they're in support, how much e-waste can you possibly divert by allowing third party OS?

If less than 5% of people are keeping their phones while they're in support 5% of all iPhone users having a home button does not mean that only 5% of iPhone SE purchasers are keeping their phones, since the population of iPhone SE purchasers is smaller than the population of iPhone users. Let's be conservative and say about 10% of iPhone users ever bought an SE. If SE users now make up about 5% of the iPhone user base, that would mean that about half have kept their devices -- an order of magnitude off from your 5% claim.
