If you’re worried about “tracking”, you probably should have moved off Google Workspace before this change. “I’ll hand all my emails and files to you in plain text, but hey, why are you storing my access patterns (and telling me about it)?” is such a weird concern.

Most people don't choose to use Google Workspace. Some organization they have a relationship with (usually their employer) chooses for them.

After that they can attempt to avoid any additional tracking on top of the necessary one that comes with the choice someone else made for them.

One concern does not necessarily negate the other, hence why they exist as different permissions.
