They list[1] which device support an official OpenWRT, but the E750 you mention is in that list for version ">21.02" without any remark. So this list is not accurate?

The firmware is a huge mess and it's especially unfortunate that there seems to be some undocumented custom drivers or something else I haven't been able to identify yet which is missing from upstream OpenWRT, making it unusable for certain of their devices.
The gl.inet firwmare itself has a lot of missing updates and I am yet to successfully make custom builds of it (though in theory it should be possible through what's on their public Github repos, save for a handful of packages they provide as binary-only)
I should have taken better notes on building a firmware but I think what eventually allowed me to replicate and make custom build was to just build as if a normal openwrt dist from https://github.com/gl-inet/openwrt with a fork of https://github.com/gl-inet/gli-pub. Ended up ditching their custom hacky wireguard/tor functionality and mostly treating it as an openwrt dist.
The mwan3 stuff can be worth keeping and extending on using the uci module, though.
