Please, keep the confirmation email. I get tons of email sent to one of my account because people register for some mailing list or other service and enter MY email address as theirs. If I get an email to confirm, I can safely ignore it and be done with it. Otherwise, it is a major annoyance. ReCaptcha may be seen as useful to cut down on the number of bots but it screws things up royally when trying to navigate in private mode, or using a VPN.

As a holder of firstname at a-mainstream-email-service, I've had to unsubscribe to mailing lists far too often. If a service doesn't offer me a way to unsubscribe, sometimes I have to recover the offending account's password and request for the account to be deleted.

  Why not use an obscure email? I have never had to deal with that.
