No it isn't. The device has access to the data on the server. The server clearly exists too.
I get it. You've invested a lot of effort in making the Android trainwreck something with halfway-viable security properties..

-
If you can get vendors to follow your lead, or become a major vendor yourself, that's great. I'm not holding my breath tho.
-
You're definitely not going to convince people to move to a less secure, less usable client-server architecture.
-
Not sure how something worse than the existing baseline solves the problem of insecure products existing either.
-
Android vendors not updating their devices, breaking the security model, etc. has nothing to do with lack of options...
-
... and people buying those phones has nothing to do with lack of alternatives without those problems.
-
It has absolutely zero relevance to us too.
-
If you're simply running Android or Linux applications on the other end then 99% of the same stuff applies to it anyways...
-
Any improved isolation there is totally orthogonal too. It's applicable whether or not this client-server model is used.

it's not a trainwreck. Desktop Linux is way worse and doesn't have a security model at all. You're the one that's biased here.
-
Anyway if you want to make up bad suggestions from a position of total ignorance and dismiss useful stuff, feel free.
-
Your condescending monologues in ppl's @'s really don't serve to promote your project.
-
Don't spread FUD and make condescending remarks if you don't want the same tone to be used in return.
-
You know very well by now that I consider Android a bad design & dead end. You don't need to @-storm every time you disagree.
-
It's impossible to respond to every unfounded criticism in a rapidly-growing & non-navigable tree of tweets & I won't try.
-
There are a lot of good nontrivial questions about my proposed design, but your criticisms just assumed dumb answers to each.
-
& I'd be happy to discuss them intelligently 1-by-1, but not being flooded by cries of "insecure!" and "going backwards!"
