'A polite reminder that....'

Does anyone else find this impolite? I think it sounds stupid. 'A reminder that ......' would suffice

I'm less bothered by polite and more by 'gentle reminder'. For some reason I absolutely cannot stand that phrase!

Yes, what comes next after a gentle reminder?

I guess... a rough reminder? Sounds kinda fun 😁
