Ad hominem comments are inappropriate on this list.  The norms of mail
are pretty clear, and it's an unfortunate situation that Microsoft and
Apple mail clients are broken.  IIRC Apple's Mail.App used to correctly
implement format=flowed (so that the lines were a reasonable length, but
the receiving MUA had permission to rewrap them), but it no longer seems
to do that.

In addition, your characterization of the view that mail should adhere
to standards is completely off base; it seems to be the majority opinion
here.
