100% agree with this. If someone gains access to your email account password they literally have access to everything.
Side scenario I just ran into that would also encourage a separate password. I updated my Proton Email password and used Proton Pass to generate a password. Guess what happened next? Once I updated my password it logged me out of Proton Pass and needed my new password. However I don't know it since it was generated by Proton Pass. I tried to reset my password and then needed my phrase. Oh guess where that is? Yep, Proton Pass. If I had a master password that was separate I wouldn't have had this problem.
Luckily for me I still have my LastPass Manager to get my phrase.
