Being able to create create calendar events from dates in emails benefits from being a single app. Also contacts integration is necessary to auto fill email adresses. It'd be great to have seamless integration between mutliple apps, but with Thunderbird having tabs it's also a good experience.

I believe Thunderbird supports IRC and matrix, but I don't use those features. Standalone apps usually provide a better experience.

Hopefully notes is compatible with other notes systems, maybe markdown with a folder structure. This'd compatible with Markor on Android and also many (diy) solutions (e.g. vim).

Thats true. Their tabs are weird though, at least the "places" bar which doesnt make sense as the tab bar is still there and the places bar is incomplete.
