Is this only when using MFA. Sometimes, without MFA enabled, if you just change the user-agent header they send an email that they have detected a "new device". What if you just exported all mail each day, maybe this could be automated, then in the event of a lockout at least you have all of the stored mail.

I don't use MFA.

Also, I have my emails backed up, but that doesn't help for authentication/recovery with other services/external accounts that were created using that Gmail account... Maybe I need to host my own but that comes with a plethora of other problems.
