Same reason for me choosing Proton over Tutanota early on in the privacy journey. Already not having @gmail of @icloud etc throws off anyone I have to give email to over the phone, let alone trying to pronounce and convey the correct spelling of Tutanota. At least I usually only have to repeat it once - proton mail - that's proton as in science class. I realize this doesn't matter for those using their own domain.
