Wow, great thought. Why do we maintain the Cc? Like, what is the difference between putting someone in the "To" field as opposed to the Cc field in a corporate email in 2023? I ask as an ignorant millennial: does the Cc actually afford something different to the recipient of a Cc'd email? I still sometimes use it out of habit when I want the Cc'd person to feel a bit more like an FYI, but in practice that makes little sense, since the missive ends up in the Cc'd recipients inbox in exactly the same way.
