I agree entirely.

Equally, it is not a valid reason to filter them. We need to recognise
people and communities are different, that both behaviours are useful,
and valid, and that people who want one kind of behaviour or another are
not stupid.

If he does this regularly, this is a high-effort option he probably does
not want to take. It's possible, but it's suboptimal. There is nothing
wrong with him wanting to do it differently.

Well that tells us absolutely nothing about what I wrote about, which
was the trends in mail clients, does it?
I agree with you though, it makes sense for them to be separate. I
usually use the keyboard shortcuts, which are separate.
