#2Maybe it's not "warm", but to catch my attention you should include something that makes it clear this was hand crafted email for me.
There's just so much content pushed out by using marketing automation tools that is nicely written, but totally generic. If your otherwise nice email falls into this category, then it might just get ignored.

that's just good cold emailing. kinda misleading to redefine "warm" to "cold but with some effort put in". same issue with this article, "warm" is in quotes.

It's sad that you feel it's "sucking up" when you place value on the other person's existence when considering how you couch your message's intent.
A mathematical formula will always have the same result, but a linguistic formula will not. It is unique to every single individual to have ever existed. The words each have a hidden iceberg of meaning which is compounded by the context, not just within the expression, but within the receiver's life.
Things such as relationship problems, election concerns, digestion, PTSD, and background music can all dramatically change how an email is received.
I hope you grow beyond your cynicism.

#7Don't write emails, and if you must, keep them short.
Use messaging, meetings, wikis, issue trackers, any specialised tool you need to use to improve communication.

This, please.
There's nothing more infuriating to me than automated emails pretending to be friendly, interested, you name it… to get your attention and waste your time while obviously not being worth the sender's own time.
If you want to get attention and leave a good first impression, earn it by making your emails undoubtedly specific.

While this is true for personal emails, the linked article is really talking about marketing emails to strangers.

Over here in Europe where everyone seems to be on it chat via WhatsApp is really effective. Only used it for customer development & not hard sales though. Very very low barrier & personal.
