My pixel 5 is currently running on grapheneOS and will be unsupported soon so I'm looking to switch over to CalyxOS for an extended support. Are there any other deGoogled OS's you guys recommend?

Honestly, with FBE, I wouldn't bother with bootloader relocking

You get all the disadvantages of a locked bootloader with none of the advantages(strong integrity or widevine L1 certification)

Instead, FBE allows you to wipe data but not access it without pin, or whatever

If your recovery doesn't have support for decryption, it just doesn't access data!
