I was thinking the same, all round their snooze feature misses edge cases often. It's a solid and smart set of defaults, but it could certainly be improved. For one, if I get an email with a schedule (say a train ticket) I have to go to Gmail then add it to the calendar. It'd be way smoother to just snooze until the day mentioned, and they could presumably use the same stuff Gmail uses to extract calendar events to do so.
BTW I think the idea of the current snooze someday is to save it in snooze instead of done without setting a reminder because it's easier to find stuff there. It's lower friction than using a different app but I doubt it'll scale well to many saved things.
Really I just hope Google have a plan to bring these things together, I think the inbox and Google now reminders are linked, but the keep ones aren't? And Gmail makes calendar events instead, it's all a bit messy.
Regarding your last point Gmail reminds me of train/plane/... events through Google now. It does also create Calendar events. My Keep remainders also pop on Google now, although they seem lower priority (?).
