There is one simple point you might be underestimating: signing requires the private key, encryption does not AFAIK. \n\nConsider this use case: my key is not stored on the phone, but an NFC crypto card like a Yubikey. When I don't have it with me, I would still like to send end-to-end encrypted mail to protect it from eavesdropping during transit. I can encrypt to the recipient and myself using only the public keys.\n\nThat's a very practical matter, not some philosophical view about secure communication. Same goes for having to enter the private key's passphrase when stored on the device, which gets old fast and could keep people from using the feature regularly. \n\nIMO an end-to-end encryption on its own is useful. The receiver cannot trust the sender in that case, but at least they don't need to trust the network. "}}
