I usually get my bills in a PDF? You have to join sites to view them? I would hate that.

Email is both insecure and unreliable by design. I would never want to receive anything financially or legally important that way. As a notification option, sure, but not the only way.

Emails can be end to end encrypted.

People can be honest and forthcoming too but you don't design a system around that assumption.
