no I'm not trying to sound like a boomer or anything, I genuinely hate how every piece of modern technology has such annoying inconveniences and I end up using like 3 features of a phone even though I bought the newest flagship.

You're recommending a highly insecure OS missing the August and September Android security patches. Look at their announcements for those. They only shipped a subset of the open source patches. They're a month behind on Chromium security patches too.
It's very harmful advice.

AOSP dropped standalone SIP support in the Dialer because it was unmaintained and there are better SIP implementations available elsewhere. It's really just another example of what I said above. Adding back problematic unmaintained code removed for a reason is itself a problem.

Almost anything is better off than using a highly insecure OS months behind on security updates which misleads users about which patches are being provided and about what they provide with their OS in general. I don't think that makes sense for anyone. It's genuinely unsafe.

AOSP Dialer is not the only Dialer app available. Adding back a bunch of unmaintained code that was removed for very good reasons is exactly why the LineageOS code and approach used by CalyxOS is problematic. It's why you don't have the August and September security updates.
