Sorry, I don't quite get the point you're trying to make... With an app password you have full IMAP access.

  > With an app password you have full IMAP access. App passwords no longer exist on Google.

    That is 100% untrue. I've built functionality on app passwords and use them on a daily basis.

      On my Google Workspace org, app passwords don't even show up in the user account settings any more. The documentation says they are recommended against, and the IMAP docs say only oauth2 is supported. However I just found posts that suggest that you can still access them if you navigate directly to the app passwords page. I will try.

        We're using app passwords for Marco (https://marcoapp.io https://marcoapp.io), until we get through the unnecessarily-rigorous process of gaining privileged OAuth access for email scopes. Here's the support article we link our users to: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833 https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833 Workspace is a bit different, however. You need an admin to enable app passwords.
