People make mistakes. And plenty of people have previous email
addresses they no longer have access to (for example, accounts from
defunct IPSs or addresses they have abandoned because of spam, or
addresses on domains they used to own...).

And an attacker may include an email address they are hoping/planning
to gain control/access to in the future.

The problem is not that we're paranoid;
it's that we're not paranoid enough.
