Since this happens often, you could try changing the form of the email addresses to make them less confusing.
I can think of several options:
1. Prepend "from-", so that instead of <their-business>@example.com you give them from-<their-business>@example.com.
It should at least make it easier to explain your approach when you have to.
2. ROT13 or reverse the name of the business so it's gurve-ohfvarff@example.com or ssenisub-rieht@example.com.
You can design a different stateless function that maps names to email addresses.
The function doesn't even have to be invertible.
This is similar to a stateless password manager like https://www.lesspass.com/ https://www.lesspass.com/.
3. Use a list of pre-generated addresses you keep on your person.
Think recovery codes.
Of course, you can keep the list on a smartphone.
