Whilst it could be theoretically possible to modify, say, the home screen code, unfortunately, since it now uses WASM it is extremely difficult to reverse engineer.
Basically, we don't have the source code for what we need to modify, and decompiling it does not give you the original source code, but rather, a highly obfuscated low-level language, which whilst easier, is still extremely difficult to understand

Thanks Bluebotlabs for the detailed explanation, much appreciated
