I very much want to believe that Google cares about small email providers and self-hosters. I believe that you care personally, but have a look at the documentation. All the help articles target bulk-hosters, the documentation doesn't even mention humans! The case that a human wants to send an email to another human, which is the very reason email was created in the first place, is not even covered or planned, so I'm pretty sure Google doesn't care about collateral like us, who have fun caring about their own email servers, playing by the rules and doing everything to not be on blacklists.
Why not count the amount of emails coming from those domains and give them a "softer" filtering algo if it's below a certain threshold? Or open a whitelisting program where you can go full Google on people who violate the terms? I think there are (automatable) ways to solve this problems, but only if Google understands that emails are for human interaction, not to receive ads.
