Key insight: Email is not a to-do list, but most people treat it like one. The triage system forces a binary decision on every email within seconds: does this need my attention or not? The 2-minute rule (if it takes less than 2 minutes, do it now) eliminates 60% of emails immediately. For the rest, the question isn't "when will I reply?" — it's "who should reply?" and "does this need a reply at all?"
