If this system is used as a gateway to schedule a meeting or ask for a favor then might be all right! Like, if you're honest and say "hey I did even setup a reminder to make sure we agree on our next meetup that we talked about earlier". And then remove it from the reminders and make sure to follow up as with a normal friend if they want to. A reminder has to have a specific reason, and "say hi" is not specific enough. Otherwise, nobody wants (downvoted posts at the bottom) to get a message from a person who did it because a CRON job sent a reminder to their email, this is how sales people work. Furthermore classification should not be that explicit, yes we have our favorite acquaintances, but not with labels in the lists. Labels have a weird side effect, what if you follow up and have a convo and them meet a person, do you go back to the list and elevate their status?
