One of the most important reasons I use Gmail is because it supports multi-factor authentication (mfa). MFA is great at helping keeping an account secure. Consider, the IETF has never updated SMPT, IMAP or POP to include MFA workflows.
If people used long passwords and made sure they don't give them to phishing sites, not MFA would be needed.
For me, the choice had nothing to do with composition features. And to point out the obvious... top posting is a choice by the user. It is not a property of a mail client.
Some clients make inline posting almost impossible or very hard, e.g. current versions of Outlook.
