You can do filters and rules in OL too. The point is that i DO want everything to land into ONE place and that is Inbox. I tried using, tasks, flags, reminders, even OneNote... It turned out to be very distracting to me. When it is in my inbox I can very fast scan it using my right hand and up and down arrows.

Skipping between folders and clicking here and there takes me out of focus.
