No way! Do you know how many Google accounts are out there? As I mentioned before, the person would have to, at the rate given, stay on the site for 2 hours to even have a statistical chance of being guessed unless you knew exactly who the target was.
Overall, this issue seems to only concern a specific individual that's being targeted by another specific entity. It doesn't seem useful or workable at all if you're guessing against a set of known emails.

Doesn't matter, I don't care about them. I just care if the person reading right now has initials SB, SM or KAC and might be in a position to say "Sir, have you seen this article?" (note: I have no idea who in the Trump administration might be using non-archived private email or whether rhesus nut or them are actually using Gmail, initials were chosen for names I know are still in their positions at the time I'm writing this)
