In flat mode the body of the message is right in front of your eyes. Most people don't even pay attention to the topic, and merely skim over the message quickly until they reach something of interest.
New message is also not 100% accurate, since when you load a page of messages in flat view, all the messages on that page get marked as read. So for example if you only read the 1st 5 messages and there were 10 messages on page all 10 would get marked read. Meaning that if you rely purely on the icon you are likely to skip over messages you have not yet read.
