Checking privacytools.io, I see they have choices that aren't great alternatives to Proton's ecosystem. For example, NordVPN (not a great product) and Mullvad (didn't the owner contribute to a Swedish nazi party?)

So...is there a curated set of recommendations to replace all Proton products?

Why are you using that site? The owner ditched the old team at Privacy Tools and now has littered the site with affiliate links. The team went on to create a new site.

Because I did not know the old team at Privacy Tools ditched it. That would be the reason. The reason is that.

I'd recommend either Fastmail, Posteo or Mailfence for email, Cryptpad for Drive, Keepass for Vault, NymVPN for VPN, and literally any FOSS calendar app for calendar.
