SELinux is a critical part of the least privilege model of a Android system. It is why Android hasn’t been impacted by almost all Linux CVEs. Unlike desktop Linux, Android was created after modern security threats were around. Overtime the system has been partitioned so that a compromise in ome area doesn’t impact others. It isn’t flawless but it does a pretty good job.
It breaks the entire Android security model. Your device will become highly vulnerable as apps will have full access to everything. All it takes is a browser exploit and you are cooked.
android uses selinux and android is used as the base for one of the most secure OSes in the world.
Android itself is pretty secure due to it being created after model security threats.
if you mean GrapheneOS, you can’t not know that GrapheneOS’s security is thanks almost in no part to SELinux
Android is not, and never was, secure. Selinux is a bandaid.

Don’t disable SELinux
