@ngraham It might be that many notifications != no notifications in some cases, but at least in the case of emails, with many unread emails basically doesn't make a difference. I have a coulpe of hundred thousand unread emails + the emails in my spamfolder which is another hundred thousand. Having such an indicator in this case is just .. useless. I do get that the badge makes sense if you have a inbox zero kind of attendance to your email, but if not, it is just noise. Maybe a star or a infinity symbol can be a usable compromise. But that also doesn't actually convey any information. Because you know you have unread emails.
