I think you're spot on. I find it vexing when people point to what happened with ProtonMail as proof that their entire software stack is compromised, when what happened is simply a limitation of email clients in general (and maybe always will be) and laws that every business is subject to. How email works is not how VPNs work.
I think it was a wakeup call for a lot of people, though, that thought they could just use their email to remain anonymous.

What I was referencing was the political news recently with their CEO. Lotta people up in arms about that one. However I haven't heard of the email one. Was that the one where the Users IP got leaked/turned over? Any links you can share?
