> So yes, if someone gets my phone, they can then gain access to my Google account. Grrrrr...

If someone gets your wallet, they can use your credit cards to gain access to your credit. You cancel the credit cards. Move on with your life.

Your phone already matters as much as your wallet now - that's just reality. Secure your phone as best you can. Use full-disk encryption wherever backups are stored. Don't give your phone to people you can't trust. Change your password if you lose it or it gets stolen. Move on.

These are tools to solve problems, not shrines to worship.
