I agree it’s not perfect but what is your better solution? My email and some passwords have been collected at least 8 times according to https://haveibeenpwned.com/

A password manager with multiple factor authentication sounds better to me.

The different email address per service approach fixes that issue and provides additional privacy when your data is sold to bulk data resellers.
