The way profiles work right now makes a decoy profile not work properly. GrapheneOS developers don't add features that can be defeated by basic training.

Last I heard, the way the developers want to do it is add an early boot passphrase and then a decoy setup would be possible without leaving a way for attackers to be able to know for sure that a decoy feature was used.
