Screen replacement questions when running Graphene OS

Hello everyone,
I recently acquired a new screen to replace the broken one on my Pixel 7 Pro, but there are some things I'm worried about since I run Graphene OS on the phone. Although I don't think it would impact the process whatsoever, I thought I should ask anyway before the part arrives just in case:
# When initially swapping to the new screen, it's stated not to touch it before the first boot for it to perform some extra calibration. Does it actually need to boot into the stock OS for this calibration to be done? Or does the calibration happen before booting into the OS altogether?
# After installing the screen, I will need to go through the whole fingerprint calibration process. Can that be reliably done when using a custom OS? I've seen some posts around of some managing to do it, but when people are having trouble with this process even with the stock OS, I honestly have no idea.
# This third one is more of a general question, but when testing out the fingerprint calibration tool at [link|https://pixelrepair.withgoogle.com|pixelrepair.withgoogle.com|new_window=true], it asks me for a country and carrier. Although I bought the phone in the US, it's not carrier-locked. Which option should be chosen in this case? US -> Other? Other?
Although there's nothing critical on the phone that would prevent me from factory resetting it, I'd rather not go through that unless necessary.
Thanks in advance.
