The messed up deletion behavior baffles me to this day. The stock mail app on iOS will behave correctly if you muck with the Gmail POP/IMAP settings and turn off 'Archive' in MobileMail, but I have zero confidence that this will work on macOS because Apple pays less attention to the desktop and Gmail don't give a crap if actual client applications work correctly.

They just assume everyone uses the web interface.

More likely, they want you using their app and their web interface, and merely tolerate third party apps. For now.

Google wants you in the Googleverse forever.
