See what happens if you try to set it up using Advanced IMAP settings:

    The point is you get an error choosing gmail as the type of account. You should be able to choose gmail and have it sync your gmail and your google calendar with this choice.

    IMAP doesn’t do this and doesn’t behave in the same way.

    Going to gmail from your web browser is also a valid workaround 🙈
