maybe I am missing something.
even if a tag is not device-specific, doesn't it make sense to update
the SPL?
e.g. if android-8.1.0_r70 has all the security patches applied from the
November 2019 (and earlier) security bulletin, why not update the
variable PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH?
Leaving it set to 2017-12-05 seems unnecessarily confusing.

The security backports are not device specific. Hence we are not
updating the security string on those branches.

Could you explain why the PLATFORM_SECURITY_PATCH of

That's very confusing!
