Does this look like a decent starting point for a first router build?

According to the official website, it will officially have Android 12.0, Debian 11 and Buildroot support and will unofficially support Armbian, Ubuntu 20.04, Ubuntu 22.04 and Kylin OS.
As for x86, I’d really like to try and avoid it for a router.
Why? (genuine question)
It’s a couple levels of power more than what I need for a router in my opinion.
x86_64 is inefficient and insecure
Is this board using FOSS RISC-V with open schematics? If not, there’s very good reason to suspect it too.
Also, I trust ARM (almost definitely backdoor’d) over x86_64 (confirmed backdoor’d)
They’re both with backdoors how do you trust either?
I don’t trust either, I’m just saying I trust ARM more. English is confusing and trust can be both boolean and float at the same time
ARM trust: 0.2 (false)
x86 trust: 0.1 (false)
RISC-V FTW
I didn’t know RISC-V routers were a thing. There’s OPNSense support for RISC-V?
There isn’t. I was asking if the Banana Pi used RISC-V
It’s ARM
Yes
