Harmony OS is an Android distro.

That statement is partly true since the Chinese isn't interested in totally breaking from a widely used mobile OS..The difference is the Chinese uses only the open-source portion and has ZERO patented or copyright parts like those using Google services. End of the days the HarmonyOS isn't about running on your mobile phone but part of the larger Huawei eco-system the includes devices like IoT to self-driving cars...

As I already mentioned - Huawei already moved beyond its hard-ware depend as it business core...The REAL scary part is you going to need at least 5G infra in order to develop into a fully commercial solution...which rest of the World, including the US are struggling.
