Why? From my POV, push notifications are sort of an edge case, useful only for a handful of people who need synchronous communication in their mobile device. I disable notifications for most apps I use anyway, they do nothing but annoy me.
What I'm saying is, this very much depends on the use-case and work style. If my most used productivity app lost notifications, I wouldn't even notice.
