#14Inbox has essentially these features. What are the advantages here?

#18This assumes an inbox is a type of "project" that needs to be "completed". It's structured on the concept of removing messages from my screen until there is nothing left for me to "do".
My inbox is often more of a conversation that I fade in and out of. Sometimes it resembles a facebook feed. Granted, I'm not a type A personality, but not all email is has to be "done" anymore than all reading books need to be "done". They can be continuous reference or contemplation for a time.
I guess it depends on if we are talking about work email or personal email. Perhaps even more, it's just about perception.
