As someone who uses e-ink devices for the majority of my internet use having devices that I can trust with private tasks such as online banking is important to me. On my Hisense A9 with Lineage I can now do this with a degree of confidence that I could never trust to my Boox or non-Lineage Hisense devices with.

So it's not added functionality that LineageOS provides, it's added confidence. Yes you would lose handwriting ability and if that is important to you then it wouldn't make sense to install Lineage. In my case I use a Boox Max Lumi connected to a keyboard and it would be a dream to have LineageOS on it.
