The point is I don’t feel the need to reply to almost any notification immediately. There are emergencies that can’t wait sometimes though.
I used to think I had to decide if I wanted to reply to a notification immediately.
Besides my smart doorbell notification and actual phone calls everything else can wait an hour until I finish what I’m doing. And for those two exceptions they have special vibration patterns in my pocket.
Don’t be that guy who has to reply to notifications immediately

I agree on principal, but unfortunately in today’s world there’s things like work that demand an immediate response. Is it healthy? Nope. Do they care? Nope.

Not all notifications need replying to, and it’s sometimes nice to have them be glanceable. I don’t use a smartwatch per say, the battery life on them suck, but my Garmin watch still has some of the same general functionality along with the fitness stuff I mostly have it for. Plus underrated feature for me is using it to ring my phone when I can’t find it ha
