Ironically, this is a reaction to "email is text only!" as stereotypical as the comment you are venting about.

You simply put your own bubble in the center of the universe („all communication that matters“ ... ?!). For example: Our company cares, our whole team cares. My bubble cares. I care. And I think we are running serious business.

We might not be the majority, but when one is just looking at the amounts of mail, even common users are less important then bots.

But I understand many people do not care about because they simply don't have to and/or are not into topic. It „works“. And therefore I'm still not sorting out HTML emails in my inbox or complain when receiving them. But I will not make the problem even bigger and start sending them (so... leading by example at most :-D).

Additionally, I think the article is another proof why HTML emails still is a bad idea although I don't blame people on the streets. Even if it "works". But clearly, there is much text email out there that matters.
