I’m asking this because I’ve heard about GSI ROMs before and if I’m not mistaken it can run in almost any device, but you might face issues like wi-fi, gps, sensors, bad battery optimization. Which makes it not worth it.
But I wonder if I the ROM can be built using the source code of each device, just like building LineageOS for a given device, for example. Then these issues would be fixed.
It’s all just guesses because I’ve never built any custom ROM for my device, but I read people talking about it on my device groups.

Reading that FAQ I get the impression that it should/could run on a very large number of devices, but maybe there is some caveat I’m missing? 🤔

It’s a Poco F4 GT (codename ingres).
it may or may not work properly, but in my experience GSIs tend to work well enough.
