Maybe some middle road:
+ Netflix can send an email about optionally(!) confirming a user's address.
+ Now, rather than disabling all features and slowing down on-boarding it is possible to update the communication towards unregistered users.
+ If an email has to be sent to an unconfirmed address, preceed it with a warning. If [email protected] has been confirmed, but [email protected] not, emails for the latter will have this warning automatically.
+ Remaining option: do you want to send regular safety requests to unconfirmed addresses as provider? Policy might differ. However, it is possible to use this email to tell the user about safety/security w.r.t. your system. I'd say yes.
