Except, he hasn't ditched email at all.
6. A few types of emails will get through for now. My filters allow emails for advertisers, interviews, refunds, and people who want to hire me, to get through to my inbox [...] I’m working on automating these processes via the web
Even if he 'automates processes via the web' that's still having to spend time to read, process, and deal with text content sent by others. Rather than ditch email, he seems to have put forward a plan for receiving less of it.
