I agree with that; all I am saying is that I think a fair number of users would be happy with the IMAP access even though it does not provide E2EE benefits, which should not affect those who want to run with the bridge.
I think Protonmail started with a privacy-focused business case (for which E2EE is a key feature), but is now expanding into the broader pool of people who want to pay for an ad-free, no-data-scanning email, but are not concerned about targeted spying and prefer the simplicity of a convenient setup. For that crowd, IMAP would make more sense. My 2c.
