I didn't miss the point... I came up with a lot of those features and still strongly believe in them. But I can only change so much from outside Google and with an extension. Glad you found archive, it is the same as done in everything but name.
I can't add back bundles or deeper reminders integration. I totally agree that this extension doesn't give you back Inbox. But it makes it a little easier to bare for those that cherished the simple interface along with the wonderful features. We can only hope that Google adds them to Gmail.

Can't you add back in bundles by having the skin show (or let us save searches) like "bundle:social in:inbox".
So I can have a link that's like a bundle, and can archive all my social media emails in one go.
This feels just like a skin for gmail. And it's gone backwards. My view now is narrow with big bars on either side so I see less of the content. I can't mark an email as done.
Opening an email I don't have the archive button anymore. I got reply and forward. Where is archive/mark done feature that is for inbox?
I loved how inbox collected stuff into lists and let me mark done the whole list. Subscribe to a github project? Get all those emails as one list in inbox automatically. Where/how to do that feature in gmail?
I don't understand why ditch inbox, it's lot's better than gmail.
