Proton = No SMTP/IMAP support.
How would they be privacy-centric if they supported SMTP and IMAP?
Both support encryption and Lavabit probably had much higher standards than Proton when it comes to privacy and still supported those open protocols. What Proton is doing is pushing for vendor lock-in at any possible point so you're stuck with what they deem acceptable because it's easier for them to build a service this way and makes more sense from a business / customer retention perspective.
So you assume that Proton won't snitch on you whenever the NSA comes around asking for data?... And I'm sure Lavabit didn't snitch on Snowden.
