Interesting stuff!

I wonder, does anybody around here have the cryptographic background
to comment on the PQ part of their scheme?

Personally, if I were doing something like this, I'd aim closer to
Yawning's "Basket" protocol, which uses an established PQ construction
(ntru in Basket's case) rather than trying to invent a novel one.
