Still, it wasn’t optional for me, so I’m pretty annoyed that they’re saying it.

You can remove the mail after but indeed, I won’t trust proton with not keeping that info. The mail has to be entered in the recovery email field, and then sends mail to the recovery email when you have unread mail. So it’s not a one-time mail sent with a code.
