You're right about losing a bit of strength and yes, the big three lifts are indeed hard to replace.
I thought you were more worried about losing muscle which is the usual concern for non-athletes.
At least for squats you can do one-legged versions with higher reps and some intensity techniques. Not the same but not bad at all. One can do banded deadlifts with higher reps but it does feel weird and doesn't translate that we'll.
