I have GrapheneOS and haven't been having such problems. It does aggressively kill apps when I kill them from the recent apps menu swipe thing but that's expected behaviour. I don't understand how having a notification is what's keeping an app alive.
In developer settings their is an option called background process limit that limits the number of processes that will run in background. Check that see if it makes any changes.
Do you remember notifications that couldn't be swiped away in older Android versions? Their point was to keep their app alive. They still exist and still work the same way, keeping their app alive until it cancels the notification, except they can now be dismissed like any other notification (which doesn't really have any effect other than hiding it from you - it will still keep the app alive even when hidden).
It's possible that it's broken in AOSP for some reason, but developer documentation says it should work like this and it does indeed work like this on stock Google ROMs on Pixels.
