Why not mark them as spam?

[insane_dreamer]

because I haven't found the spam filter to be bullet proof, whereas I have found the filtering into Promotions (aka my spam folder) to work flawlessly

It's also slightly easier to drag and drop them into Promotions than mark them as spam.

I could of course do both but that's just more work
