I'm not sure what accidental journey through Gmail's options OP took but it looks to me that they inadvertently started setting up a passkey, which is tied to the hardware but can sync between Apple devices using iCloud Keychain. Apple certainly isn't blocking you from changing Gmail-specific settings.
