We have given this quite a bit of thought, but at the present moment, it is not clear the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages.
The biggest problem is search. Encrypting all metadata would break metadata search entirely on the web client as there is still no efficient way to handle search of encrypted data within a browser.
Secondly, metadata encryption’s value from a privacy standpoint is also somewhat dubious. Because we ultimately must deliver the message to the recipient, we must know who the recipient is. At the current time, there still isn’t any proven and viable way to work around this.
Metadata encryption is an area of continued research for us, and when the opportunity arises and the technology for doing this matures, we will definitely implement it in ProtonMail.

Hey,
I am relaying a Proton response from Reddit:

Like other AI platforms, running of Lumo’s infrastructure is resource-intensive. It requires significant power, storage, and bandwidth to provide fast and accurate responses in real-time.
Since we don’t monetize your personal data, sell ads, or accept venture capital, Lumo Plus subscriptions enable us to cover our operational expenses and ensure we can continue to put your privacy first.
Currently we're keeping Lumo as a standalone product to avoid increasing the price of our Unlimited plan. This way, we can keep the cost manageable for all our users while still offering advanced AI features to those who want them.
