For reasons I won't go into, I would prefer to keep my Gmail account
away from my main suite of email accounts on Outlook 365. Is there
anything to prevent me installing two different email apps on the same
PC?

You already have at least two email clients installed! Forte Agent is an
email client. I bet you have the MS email client installed. And, there's
Outlook. So, probably 3+.

In any case, Gmail has a perfectly usable web interface.

Would this mean having to sign into my Gmail account on the web every
time I want to check my Gmail? I wanted to have an app that I could
use anytime without fuss. I was thinking about Thunderbird but your
Forte Agent idea may be the answer, if I can find the settings it is
looking for, that is.

I use Gmail for some of my email, and my Chrome browser automatically
logs me in, even though I don't leave the gmail page open. It opens in
just a second or two.

I suggest you try the web interface, and see whether you are happy. Many
millions of people are!

You can create separate Outlook profiles which are totally separate
within outlook. Go to Control Panel, Mail and "Show Profiles" ...

... but you can only open one at a time.

You can install many other clients, EM Client, OE Classic, Thunderbird.
Only one can be called when clicking e-mail links in your browser..

If you leave the browser signed into the relevant google account, then no.

Yup thunderbird etc will do it. Note that you will need to enable
POP3/IMAP access to the gmail account - it is off by default.

Well that last part is debatable. I guess for the sighted all webmail is
fine, but since they are removing basic html version, the new one can be
challenging for a blind user.
I'm not sure how decoupled the simple email client and Outlook are.
Certainly the email client has fewer features.

I have Thunderbird and Windows Mail running on this PC at the same time
(constantly) and they check mainly the same email addresses.

Thunderbird also checks a few Gmail addresses and I am pretty sure that I
am not directly logged in through a browser window to all the accounts.
