Will a Linux phone based on Rasberry Pi full-fill the expectations the Pinephone did not full-fill?

Most components of the Pinephone are already available from Rasberry Pi:

The Rasbperry Pi zero 2 w is a great starting point to build a Pinephone alternative if you are not a Linux phone enthousiast who is looking for the perfect Linux phone::

Which is currently the most interesting Raspberry Pi for mobile applications – the zero 2 w?

• The bottle neck of the Raspberry Pi zero 2 w are his 512 MB Ram.
• This makes the Raspberry Pi zero 2 to a kind of a pipe detonator as well.
• It has been reviewed on YouTube many times.
• A long thread in the Raspberry Pi forum about Raspberry Pi zero 2 w has been looked.
• You only find individual questions about this Pi in the Pi forum currrently.
• And are not most of the Raspberry Pi projects currently are based on the Pi4 or Pi 5 and not the zero 2 w?
• Furhermore Raspberry Pi OS runs on the zero 2 w which was developed over the last 10 years:

But I suppose in around 3 years from now there will be an updated version of the Rasbperry Pi zero 2 w with more RAM which removes this bottle neck.
