/e/ has extraordinarily poor privacy and security. It's largely the opposite of GrapheneOS. It's hardly focused on privacy and security. See the information available at https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/24134-devices-lacking-stand... including the information that's linked from third party privacy and security researchers.
/e/ always uses multiple Google services and builds in privileged support for Google apps and services so the branding as a degoogled OS doesn't really make sense. GrapheneOS doesn't brand itself that way but doesn't make connections to Google servers by default and doesn't provide privileged access to Google apps and services.
