As of December 2023 gmail requires TLS: https://social.bitfolk.com/@grifferz/111546120071424973 Some authentication (SPF *or* DKIM) will be required by gmail from February 2024: https://social.bitfolk.com/@grifferz/111218204056919795 So their requirement will be at least one of those, but yes they do say best to have both (and DMARC). Note also that it's already the case that they might decide that in certain circumstances they want to see one or more of these things and they won't publish what those circumstances are - can even be "random sampling". So effectively it's already been the case for ages that if you want to get mail into gmail you should use SPF and DKIM. Sometimes, even now.
