The point is more generally to allow you to go longer without having to go to your inbox and/or to be able to turn of notifications for email. The RSS comes in quietly and the body and preview is an AI summarized.

Often times I'm CC'd on an email thread and can't always know what is going on just from previews, so an AI summary as the headlines would be very helpful to be able to know what is going on, without having to go into my inbox...

Why is it easier/better to go to your RSS client than your "inbox" i.e. email client?

What is the point of "going longer without having to go to your inbox" if you have to go to your RSS reader instead?

The RSS feed sits on the side of screen or appears on hover. It is like a summary of headlines of what is going on in your inbox. I guess it depends on your use case if you reach inbox zero daily. Unfortunately, I don't go to inbox zero these days as much as I'd like, and have so many emails I am CC'd on or back-and-forth conversations I am monitoring, this way I can know something came back and a short summary of it, without having to go into the inbox to find out what is going on (especially b/c I am not responding, as someone else on the team would be handling it).

Couldn't your email client sit on the side of your screen, just as easily as your RSS client?
