eh? why would access to the contents of my e-mail be a requirement to
select a valid key based on an e-mail address?

I know that enigmail has these rules, and that they are a way to work
around GnuPG's suboptimal key-selection-from-email-address routine. I
think there may be better ways to resolve these issues if we consider
all the pieces of the stack.
I think GnuPG's key selection routines need to be improved, and that
would obviate the majority of the need for per-recipient rules.
