I also couldn't imagine this happening, just think it is a better way to frame to conversation and understand how G suite users are feeling right now. There is a counterpoint though based on what you said, the large number of business users also means a larger business opportunity for them. The G suite to workspace transition has been 10 years in the making, you could imagine spreading the outrage over a longer period of time and many users not even noticing it is happening.

>Gmail will remain free as long as email is expected to be free by users.

This was also the expectation of G suite users. Forcing non-business users onto a paid business product which didn't even exist when users signed up was not the expectation. The original question should be looked at from that perspective. How long until Google creates a business focused Gmail plan and forces any user who uses their Gmail for business onto that plan. That could be done with a simple change in terms of service as well.
