In bureaucratic situations, you’re expected to have a bunch of polite boilerplate. Or at least that’s how my dad keeps telling me to write emails.
Which it seems you're missing the point of.
what does this mean lol
There's a purpose in showing that you put a little bit of thought into the email, not only for courtesy, but also because spending that attention can help you spot errors.
Then why not just spend more time reading what I wrote out loud instead of spending that time solely on padding?
