Perhaps not to the point, but I find more interesting pieces that I want to remember occur in Hangouts, Slack or some other more expeditious medium other than email.
I suspect that for some, email is losing priority.

Great read. If you enjoyed, you may also like Island of the Lost. https://www.audible.com/pd/History/Island-of-the-Lost-Audiob...
"Auckland Island is a godforsaken place in the middle of the Southern Ocean, 285 miles south of New Zealand. With year-round freezing rain and howling winds, it is one of the most forbidding places in the world. To be shipwrecked there means almost certain death."

Many people think and are incentivized to think about how to optimize for today.
Thinking about tomorrow can be counter-intuitive as to the way things work today, and it is pretty easy to construct negative arguments about tomorrow that are based on what we know right now.
