It has been used a few times by people who had a Google Play app banned, that sometimes the personal account would get banned as well.

I used to be "thepimp@hotmail.com" in the early days of Hotmail, of course I was also a 6th grader (true story). One day they unceremoniously closed my account without any possibility to recover mails.

That day I learned an important lesson: pimpin' ain't easy.

My buddy lost his Gmail account because of a heart attack followed by a string of events that google ‘AI’ considered too risky to allow the account to live.

If their fraud AI is wrong there is now human to talk to.

Even if it is warranted on their part, the 1% false positive will be detrimental to those affected. And we all know there is no way to reach out to them in case the account is automatically flagged.
