>feel less comfortable for my parents/non tech-savvy friends, who already may not follow best-practices for email hygiene

making people feel less comfortable is probably a good thing.

i've managed to convince my dad to start taking his email security more seriously by reminding him a few times that if somebody gets access to his email, they can reset his password on every site where he uses that email address. it's good to remind people of why email security matters, and that it's not just about the personal messages from friends.
