Nowadays you don't even need to root your phone; certains custom roms do that by default
And to install a custom ROM you need to unlock your boot loader and root it anyways. Do custom roms even come with a non-root option? I haven't done it in years.
You don't have to root to install custom ROM
Grapheneos doesn't require root before install or allow root after install
You.. Dont need to root your device to install a custom rom? You can very well unlock your device, flash a custom rom, and use it unrooted. Nowadays quite a lot of custom rom come with a kernel prepatched for KSU, but that's obviously not a requirement..
