Thunderbird Pro and Thundermail announced

I’m still failing to understand what added value team Thunderbird is trying to offer. I love Thunderbird as a mail client that allows me to handle both private and work accounts, but it puzzles me what made them believe people needed a new email service. Are they trying to be the new Proton? If so, I’m not so sure their goal will be met. I do wish them all the best, and perhaps I’m underestimating the demand.
