I fully agree with you on that, and to be honest I think you have already
Been really active in responding and reviewing series. 

Just to clarify the purpose of me sending these reminder emails, from my
perspective, those emails are simply for us to not forget these series (and
also one of the responsibilities of me being a release manager) instead of
pushing authors/maintainers and making them feel stressful - I will try to
rephrase for better wording if my previously emails make people think in
this way.

Kind regards,
Henry
