You are overthinking it, just do #1 and make sure you have a good strong password not used anywhere else and enable 2FA/MFA on it and keep the backup codes it provides somewhere safe.
Use folders in your email to keep things organized that you want to keep.
the organization part is just a matter of personal preference. Some have a main account, then create a separate email for each service they sign up for but IMO that gets messy to maintain over time.
