Indeed. Email is not ideal for such things but it exists and is needed because everyone refuses to make a switch. If XMPP were to replace emails, that would've been great.

Anyway, I still don't trust Proton. Have a great day.

Who knows :) But XMPP also needed all kind of extensions to support even relatively old security measures.

That's fine, you can trust who you want, of course. The important thing is to have clear the risk model.
