I am no specialist for Magisk as I don't use it myself. However, if you have to restore the boot.IMG after each ROM upgrade, you will never get the kernel patches coming with the ROM updates.
OK, understood - however, it is not at all that simple!
So you use the "microG" build variant, and you start the shipped AuroraStore and use your own Google credentials to access the play store (and not anonymously) and then AuroraStore tells you, that certain apps are installed already, bif they aren't? Or what exactly is your setup?
can't you get in contact with munjeni? I 'm not a programmer at all, but he should know exactly where the commits (edit wikipedia does explain it, but I don't think I 'm able to create a commit ) are and whether or not they might work with LOS 17
github.com
Ok, I have asked him to get in contact with you, but it might be much more efficient if the developpers would speak to each other (don't know why it should be so difficult for the LOS 17.1 programmers to get in contact with munjeni...).
it's not necessary - even for "not mainstreamed" ones- to get personal. A good friend would know a bit of my personality and even he would stick to criticism, which is related to a specific situation.
As you use the microG build, did you configure the coarse location providers in microG settings? This is known to cause issues if not done. Has nothing to do with self test, it appears on the overview page. You can either use the shipped Mozilla location provider and the nominatim for address res. Or you e.g. install Dejavu from F-Droid and freeze the Mozilla provider, if you prefer. But configure and activate the stuff. Then the GPS fix should work normally.

FAQ
ANT+ isn't working?
You need the 2 apps:
afterwards setting proper permissions is essential!
- ANT Radio Service (Github) / (Google play)
- ANT+ Plugin Service (Github) / (Google play)
This refers to those instructions which worked for me
- Go to Apps & Notifications -> See All Apps
- Select 'ANT Radio Service'
- Select Permissions
- Select Additional permissions
- Slide switch to allow using of ANT hardware
