I have been running lineageOS on my OnePlus 2. I liked it, but Lineage has stopped supporting my phone. There are two options that I have been able to find as replacements - postmarketOS and /e/OS. Any thoughts on those or other recommendation? Anything that gets security updates, is open source, and is functional meets my needs.
PostmarketOS would be my choice of those options. They support full disk encryption which the others don’t.

You’re right that they are probably just edge cases. As a thought experiment I see three possible use scenarios - 1) Lose the phone and it dies 2) Malicious person gets phone, tries to restart for whatever reason, and is locked out 3) I know for some reason that someone is about to try to get data off my phone in person and I have time to turn it off.
More to the point there really isn’t a downside. Entering a password when I restart is nothing for me, and the read/write slow down isn’t going be noticeable because I don’t ask much of my phone.
That is a nice-to-have that could push me that way
