I can process my inbox in a linear fassion (by pressing space). During
that, I'm not distracted by various GUI elements, which remind me how
many other emails I have to read. I can fully concentrate on one topic
and it makes my email processing faster.

Fast searching. Easy to use Emacs GUI (I use Emacs a lot, but I was
never able to configure Gnus to suit me).
