Just so you know, AOSP is short for Android Open Source Project.
They should just do it recursive like GNU and make it the AOSP stand for the "AOSP Open Source Project."
The term "Android" itself is trademarked and can't be used by hardware manufacturers without passing certification and paying Google.
doesn't mean it's not running Android, they just cannot use it for marketing/branding 🥴
