Or another real world example: Someone applys for a job. After checking the 
application, a recruiter sends out an email to eg request additional documents. 
The applicant swiftly replies and sends the documents, however his reply is 
classified as spam and ends up in the spam folder of the recruiter - unnoticed.
After some time passes, the applicant asks about the current state of his 
application, only to find out that the job has been given to someone else 
because the company never received a reply from him.

If the spam filtering system of this company instead rejected emails classified 
as spam, the applicant would have immediately received a NDR and would have 
reacted on this for sure.

There are use cases for spam folders, some of which have already been mentioned 
in this discussion, however the problem I see with them is that they make email 
unreliable, meaning that you can never be sure whether your communication 
partner received your email or not.
