Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

Ok. You have ton understand that neither Kmail nor Kontact are part of the Plasma project in any shape or form. The same way as Krita, Kdenlive, KDE Connect, GCompris, etc. are not part of Plasma. Plasma does not need any of them to be fully functional and, conversely, none of them need Plasma. Hell, most of them don't even need Linux, being able to work on Windows, macOS, Android, etc.

Are KMail and Kontact dependant on Akonadi? Yes, but, again, Akonadi is not part of Plasma either. All are KDE, but they are all different projects, and none of them are Plasma.

YES I UNDERSTAND THAT. I feel you're not reading me right here. You're getting hung up on the literal sense of the word "embedded" when I am just using it to relate it to the OP's concerns.
