Xen is not an obscure system. Hardware isolation was broken last time in 2006 by the Qubes founder ("Blue pill software").
I open my email in a dedicated VM, so only my email provider could attempt to compromise me. Attachments are automatically opened in another, disposable VM.
I talk about the distro qubes os and not about xen.
Also my email account and everything normal I do, is part of my normal life and it's very helpful to be normal.
If I would ever do something out of the ordinary and want to do something which requires physical access, it's much easier to travel the world as someone who has a normal Internet profile.
My personal data is protected enough on Gmail and gdrive.
Everything else just doesn't exist anywhere.
