Although it might seem OK to cause 'trouble' for multi-billion dollar companies, in this case, that 'trouble' won't affect Google, Inc any, but it WILL affect Gmail users.
It isn't difficult to understand: If Google, Inc starts losing ad revenue from Gmail because people use these third-party methods to access their accounts instead of going to the Gmail site (and getting the ads) then Google will either stop providing the Gmail service, or they will start charging for it. Your last line missed the point entirely - Google has no problem with a user filling up their 1Gb, nor do they have a problem with you using it for anything you please. They do (and I do, and other Gmail users do) have a problem with users circumventing the advertising because that means eventually no Gmail for anyone.
