99% of people who initially start using Proton Mail will NOT deeply understand the advanced security/spam mitigation features, and as such, will ALWAYS end up with the original/default email address out in the wild being sold/bought for new spammers. It's MORE important for the original email to be able to be disabled or removed than the additional mailboxes, so I'm very surprised this basic overview of use case and user behavior was missed by the team. I definitely agree this needs to be handled if the Proton team actually wants to help the users mitigate privacy and spam concerns, and if it's unhandleable, then there needs to be an easy way to migrate to an entirely new account easily, since again, this use case is frankly the most important missing privacy-minded feature today.
