I don't know if that makes much sense. If you lose, for example, assuming you spread it over three providers, 1/3 of your accounts, wouldn't this already be bad enough? I think, the overhead of using so many different services simultaneously is way bigger and more real, than something bad happening to the single service I settled with. Am also with Proton for many many years (back then, it was only "ProtonMail"...) and nothing bad happened. It only got better & better over the years. It's amazing.
I'm not sure what you mean. The "overhead" is putting your different logins into a password manager, no?
