Have you noticed certain financial providers sending blatant marketing emails with no unsubscribe option and a comment along the lines of "these emails are not marketing"

This is illegal practice in the EU
Yet rife. My complaint to a major UK provide was rebuffed with the blatently false assertion that the email promoting a website refresh was an essential service email.
It's illegal in the US too as far as I'm aware. But you missed the part where they clearly stated "it's not marketing" ;)
The corporate version of video-uploaders writing "no copyright infringement intended", except with less an an excuse for not knowing better.

They go in the junk folder and then get marked and reported as spam.

The trick is create a filter to weed out such junk. And if a company sends me marketing fluff without unsubscribe option, then it goes in the junk/spam folder, and I may eventually discontinue my account with that service provider altogether.
Because I periodically check my sp/junk folder to see if legitimate emails got dumped there, so I eventually know who's a spammer and who's not.
Yes, but not anywhere near as annoying for me at least.
