"Can't" is a bit strong. You could use the immutable objects in your logic,
but I'd agree that produces a very different code structure. Immutable
objects can have nice benefits when multi-threading.

hence I keep my version of custom implementation for main logic and use

That is a common approach, but for the different reason of allowing your
application internals to be a bit different from the messages used for
communication. For example, if you want to add a "processed" bit to a
message as part of a (theoretical) optimization, then you'd have to expose
that to your users with your current design.

You can use the builders as mutable objects, but only briefly. I think once
you build a message (a copy) to use with gRPC it takes another copy to make
its children mutable again. I think people just use the immutable objects
or make their own classes.
