Mmm I’m sure you accept that’s an extreme minority requirement.

Anyway, what’s painful about setting up multiple clients?

Gigabytes of data per account. Sync issues. If you are asking, you probably never suffered from these.

OK, but "huge headache" is somewhat exaggerated. For many clients, gmail connection settings are a preset option, where you enter a username and application password. It's a one-time configuration.

My condolences.

You are perhaps an outlier? But I can see how it's a hassle in your particular case.

Outlook type of software download all of the emails. Which means gigabytes per account. I use multiple google emails (gsuite), and this makes things harder.

Copying a settings folder is a "huge headache"? It takes s lot less time than writing a complaint post on HN.

Even if you have 6+ computers.
