Yes, do that! And note that on a number of email service providers you can add both domains to the same mailbox.

Just don't use a domain name containing your surname - register a different one.

how to deal with whois lookup privacy?

Any decent domain registrar provides WHOIS privacy for free (just note that that might not be available for .eu domain names). Additionally you can always use fake data on your account, but in this case you might lose your domain if they decide to check it.

other issues I may run into if I chose my own domain

When registering a domain, always look at the renewal price: often the first year costs relatively low, but after that there's a steep price increase.

As for an email hosting service, in addition to the ones you specified in your post, I suggest you to look at migadu.com.

Yes! Another big deal in Japan is (yes, still is) translation devices. While some people there move over to Google Translate, many old-fashioned ones still rock those gadgets that look like voice recorders but with a screen, and translate your dialogue. Japan, as a country in general, is known for not so good English skills among the population: as I understand many people don't really see a need to learn that language. Especially given that those devices to deal with foreigners are available.

There are many gadgets (including specialized ones) in Japan that have been produced for the domestic market only.

You are right - I forgot about the domain name requirement, sorry.

That's literally my experience every time I drive in the Netherlands: so many lanes!

I'm sorry, but they are an even more closed ecosystem than even Gmail: one cannot use a regular email client with Proton

Finding one ... in stock ... is a near impossibility

Lots of cards are available. They just aren't at MSRP

Sorry, but no. There are lots of European chocolate makers to choose from, that make chocolate that actually has the chocolate taste.
