I wish there was a better recommendation I could have given! Good luck finding something that works well for you though :)

I think your best bet might still be a pixel (probably a-line), since that would be the path of least resistance for software support and custom rom development/rootability. Another fun option is ASUS with great price/performance and a huge battery (I think it's fairly repairable too?), but it doesn't seem there's a community for custom roms. Here's the main possibilities and downsides as I see them:

Pixel: a little pricey, not great price/performance, not sure on repairability, weird issues with extra sw features apparently getting worse over time

Samsung: forget about custom roms, again not great price/performance at your price range, repairability okay but not good

Fairphone: bad performance, I don't believe there's any water resistance and build quality would be a concern for me, unsure about software support but I'd expect good custom rom community

Sony: not a large user base, so I'd assume there won't be custom roms. I think Sony hasn't committed to the same software support as other big names. I'd be worried about availability of replacement parts for repairs

ASUS zenfone: out of your price range. Bad track record for sw support

It's a little disappointing that they didn't do any testing of microplastic levels at different cook times. Instructions on the small baby food containers used in this study say to microwave for 20 seconds, and in my experience even going for 30 seconds makes the food uncomfortably hot. Id imagine that 3 full minutes boils the food and possibly melts the containers (and baby pouches are even smaller than the containers I'm referring to). The obvious testing procedure would be to use the containers as they are intended, so I'm a little suspicious why they chose such an arbitrarily long cook time
