And it can be the other way around. I still don’t get why this demands some new level of security beyond what protects other data.

So I want to read an encrypted mail, then delete it. What do I do?

Disable the feature permanently or click the Recall icon on the system tray and quickly pause it while you read the encrypted email.

Ok, what if I forget or don't know it's active?

Then that is your fault and it is on you.

Users will be blamed until security improves.

God forbids users take any responsibility for their own security.

Who argues against users taking responsibility? The users who demand exfiltration protection around the Recall DB? Or the commenters who maintain that extra protections are pointless?
