i'm not used oreo yet.
if you use official miui or unofficial los15, maybe you need rebuilt binary or fix something..

What's the state of ANT+ with the Xiaomi Mi5 nowadays? I'm trying to get ANT+ to work with Oneplus 3T (MSM8996 Pro).. OnePlus didn't include the ANT+ in the Android 9 update from 2019 while it was working in the previous versions of Oxygen OS (5.x.x / Android 8 )

I don't use official firmware, but it wouldn't work samely as your case.
at least, ANT+ of MI5 works well on lineageos 18.1(android 11) without any extra job.
it's just highly related their build configure.
so, firmware maker just do building with right configuration, ACT+ will be works very well.
