These wouldn't allow a user to downgrade, correct? Like, to 7.1.0, use dePixel8, and then root?

Can the updates be installed out of sequence? I'm currently on the Oreo March update, can I install the May update without installing April first?

if you're rooted, then the ota won't apply via the google system update. your rom has to be completely stock in order for it to work. your bootloader can be unlocked. i don't know about flashing the ota via twrp. i've never done it.

correct, they will not allow a user to downgrade. there isn't a downgrade method available for locked bootloaders.

if you flash the full factory image, yes, you can flash the may update over the march update. i don't know about the otas though. i always flash the full factory image.

Does anyone know if I can flash the OTA on my nonrooted Pixel XL through TWRP ?
