I'm sorry you feel that way about time investments...
But I've always assumed that's also the sentiment for time spent
learning ANY new tools or workflow changes that come along.

Fwiw, git-send-email(1) manpage also has a special section for gmail:

and a link for app-specific passwords:

  https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords
