Why is this being downvoted? Doesn't it make sense that senior developers spend more time sending emails than staying up through the night writing code?

I don't understand how you got that from the image.

Both monitors on the senior side of the image are showing coding environments

What do you mean? You don’t write your email in your IDE and lint it before copy/pasting it into Outlook (or email client of choice)?

A senior dev writes a program to generate her email.

I have actually done this, and for more than just automated responses. It was before ChatGPT, though; now, I'd be surprised if even junior devs aren't doing it.

CI / CD baby, every autosave my build pipeline clones my email, transpiles it into more easily understood archaic English and then sends a copy to the intended recipient while kicking off a chron job to send an automated follow up email to them and everyone they're contacts with 2 hours from commit time.
