  > I have the advanced protection on in my Gmail account Well, Google has your email, to read and use and pass on, so I'm not quite sure what this "advanced protection" can mean.

  I think you can get most of the benefits of the enhanced protection but setting specific features yourself instead of the one "do everything" flag. I have 2FA required on regular logins for example, which can be a Yubikey or authenticator app token. At the same time, I have app passwords, used by my emacs-based email setup. Mu4e gives me instant search-based access to my saved email, and pretty good security elsewhere. Is that an option?

      That's a valid choice too, to be sure. As long as you know there are options.
