If it looses money, I wonder if they will shut it down one day, like they like to do.

Gmail is _the_ thing that most Gsuite customers are really paying for. Many people also but extra storage for Gmail. Plus, of course, it's a really good data source.

It's better than anything out there. So if they're not interested in making money out of it, I'm sure someone else would buy it promptly.

It's probably neck-deep in Google proprietary tech that Google couldn't even sell it if they wanted to.
