Sorry, but this is really not a clever argument. If you accidentally do 
something wrong, then you can improve and do it correct the next time (ie. 
setting the opion to reply in plain text only).

So if I compare opportunities und threats of proper html support, there is 
almost no disadvantage for the single user but many advantages specially for 
corporate users. 

And btw, it is not the “programs who don't care about spewing their junk into 
everyone's email”, but it is still only the user, who is responsible. So, 
please don‘t argue for artificially limiting the power of some tools because of 
the stupidity of others. This is done in the commercial world anyhow far too 
much.
