This isn’t that strange, at least to me. Many business will block certain file types or file encapsulation methods for spam and security reasons, and I can’t really blame them for that.
Also as the OP said, this is appears to be a niche use case, and perhaps even the first time this particular business ran into this issue.

> I needed to send sensitive documents to a business. Their system blocks encrypted files so that wasn’t an option and we were struggling to come up with a way they would accept it. I guess I’m the first person they interacted with that cares about encrypting sensitive files.
